Fascinating. Here in New Mexico we have a lot of Oñate and Coronado history (also Estaban who may also have been in Kansas), but I haven't known much about their exploring further afield.
Wanted to mention that last week I was watching a program on t.v. claiming the the Maya had settlements throughout North America, yes up into Canada too. Here in NM folks often talk about Azteca del Norte, but perhaps it was the Maya who were more extensively present, earlier. Perhaps that makes them the ancestors of the Kansas Etzanoa and other tribes? More than a decade ago I read that the Athabascans family of tribes which includes Navajo, were the only tribes whose DNA proved they had arrived via the Bering Land Bridge.
The map on the t.v. program showed around about maybe 35 settlements in North America scattered throughout Mexico, U.S.A., and Canada more or less all equidistant from one another - so that it looked more or less planned. Would be interesting to find history substantiating the claim. Don't know how recent the research was.
