They didn't. The Pueblo people were already living in Pueblos when the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. Some of these villages have been continuously occupied for 800 to 1000 years or more. The only changes the Spanish brought were that some villages were abandoned to gather together more and protect against the Spanish especially after the successful Pueblo Revolt of 1680. Also there were population losses caused by Spanish diseases, attacked and starvation due to the Spanish stealing food.

21 Pueblos still exist and people still live there.
