Excerpt from The Gods Are Good: A Play in Three Acts and an Epilogue
In those days, long before Christopher Columbus first landed on the shores of the New World, there existed a group of tiny republics in a part of the America which he was des tined to discover. Even then the people of these little city states built their houses of stone rising story-ou-story above the tops of lofty desert mesas, and lived in comparative peace in a land of fierce, nomadic tribes, against whom they fought only to defend their homes. Here they tilled the soil and developed a system of laws and government. They recognized the rights of property, and elected their rulers in true demo cratic fashion.
These people inhabited what is now New Mexico and Northeastern Arizona, where their descendants still live in the storied pueblos of their fathers. Here they cultivated maize and cotton, and wove the latter into a cloth which was the admiration of the Spaniards when, under Coronado in 1537, the white men first saw the Pueblos - as these people are called.
