Tiwa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Tiwa, in Spanish Tigua, people were the residents of the Isleta pueblo during the conquest of New Mexico.

After the revolt against the Spanish Conquistadors in 1680, a few of the Tigua fled south with the Conquistadors, to El Paso, Texas, where they founded Ysleta, Texas, where they live to this day.
