TRANSPORTATION For transportation, they used their feet. Once they learned how to tame dogs, they made dog sleds and made them carry heavy things. The dogs usually pulled children and goods, adults were too heavy.
Pueblo Indians also used horses to get around. They used the horses often because they were easier to use on the terrain rather then wagons or dog sleds
Pueblos got wagons in the 1600’s but most liked to stick with traditional horses.
DIET
The Pueblo Indians ate a large variety of food. They grew and found fruits and vegetables and hunted for meat. To cook their food they used fire for what couldn’t be eaten any other way.
They found/grew yucca, a shrub looking fruit that normally has a flower. They also grew corn, beans, and squash regularly.
Pueblo Indian hunters also hunted deer. Along with deer, they hunted rabbit and big horned sheep.
