Europeans significantly impacted the Anasazi, or Puebloan people, primarily through the introduction of new diseases, which decimated their population. The arrival of Spanish explorers and settlers in the 16th century also disrupted their traditional ways of life through forced labor, land encroachment, and cultural assimilation efforts. Additionally, the demand for resources and trade altered their economic structures and social dynamics. Ultimately, these factors contributed to the decline of the Anasazi civilization and their eventual displacement from their ancestral lands.
The arrival of the Europeans did not affect the native americans in Mexico.
The Anasazi, or Ancestral Puebloans, primarily thrived in the southwestern United States long before significant European contact. However, by the late 19th century, they encountered European explorers and settlers, which led to the documentation of their archaeological sites and cultural practices. These interactions were generally characterized by curiosity and admiration from the Europeans, but they also brought challenges, such as the introduction of new diseases and changes to the Anasazi’s traditional way of life. Ultimately, the Anasazi culture had largely declined by the time Europeans arrived, leading to a complex legacy of interaction that is still studied today.
Probably the Anasazi, and among the Europeans, it was Garcia Lopez de Cardenas of Spain in 1540.
The Anasazi Indians lived in deserts, so they couldn't grow crops in that sort of heat. Water was needed!

The Anasazi.
Anasazi is a Navajo word for a native american group (not one tribe) that existed in the area before the Navajo and experienced a serious population decline before Europeans arrived. So they existed for many thousands of years. Their descendants are most likely the Hopi, so the culture of the so called Anasazi was probably similar to that of modern day Hopi. So when the Navajo arrived and called them Anasazi they probably called themselves Hopi as they do now.
