Cochiti Pueblo

The Cochiti pueblo people are a federally recognized tribe of Native Americans. According to the Keres Online Dictionary the Keresan-name for the People of Cochiti Pueblo is K’úutìim’é (“People from the Mountains, i.e. Cochiti people”).

The Cochiti speak Eastern Keres, a dialect of the Keresan language, a language isolate. In the early 21st century, the Keres Children’s Learning Center, an independent Keres immersion school, was founded to aid with preservation of their language and culture. It has added grades since its founding.
