Best Answer

The Pueblo people didn't really protect the Navajo. Sometimes the Navajo and Pueblos traded, other times the Navajo raided the Pueblos. The Navajo probably got some things like weaving and corn from the Pueblo people. The successful Pueblo Revolt of 1680 meant that when the Spanish returned in 1692 they were much more careful and didn't really colonize the western Pueblos again which indirectly probably helped the Navajo. On the other hand, the Rio Grande Pueblos later sided with the Spanish against the Navajo and later encouraged the Americans to lead military expeditions against them. One of the caused of the Oraibi split at Hopi had to do with an argument as to whether the Americans or the Navajo were more of a threat and therefore which side they should join with to fight the other.
