The Catholic priest who traveled with Francisco Coronado was Fray Marcos de Niza. He played a significant role as an early explorer in the Southwest of the present-day United States, serving as a guide for Coronado's expedition in search of the fabled Seven Cities of Gold. Fray Marcos was notable for claiming to have seen the cities during his earlier reconnaissance, which spurred Coronado's larger expedition in 1540. His accounts, however, were met with skepticism, as they often exaggerated the riches and civilizations he claimed to have encountered.
