You may be referring to Juan de OÃ±ate. He was a conquistador: in the late 1500s and early 1600s, he explored in the New World, and he established the colony of New Mexico for Spain. Most accounts say he was very dictatorial and harsh as the leader of that colony, but he is known for having established it.

How did juan de onate fate?

Juan de Oñate, the Spanish conquistador and colonial governor of New Mexico, faced both triumphs and controversies during his tenure. While he established the first permanent Spanish settlement in the region in 1598, his harsh treatment of Indigenous peoples, including the brutal Acoma Pueblo massacre, led to significant backlash. In 1606, he was summoned back to Spain to answer for his actions and faced a trial, resulting in his temporary exile from New Mexico. Oñate eventually returned to Spain, where he lived the remainder of his life, largely overshadowed by his controversial legacy.
