What did the catholic church tried to convert the pueblo Indians to do?
Well the Spanish priests primarily believed that they had to convert the native population, to save their souls and bring them to God. Some did this very aggressively and if a native lapsed into his original beliefs he/she was tortured and many times executed as a heretic. But not all priests acted this way. Most were humane men and tried to protect the natives from the abuses of the Spanish overlords.

Where did the Native American Indians come from?
The commonly accepted theory - and it is just that, a theory - is that the American Indians migrated to the North American continent using a now-defunct land bridge linking Asia (Russia) to North America (Alaska).
The reason the native Americans look Mongoloid (as they have been thought until recently) is perhaps where their ancestors were from.
It may be asked how did they make it over to America in such times when there weren't any ships. The answer would be that enough of the North Atlantic would have been frozen over during the Ice Age for them to have got across.
(If Native Americans were truly descended from an early "caucasian" people, then wouldn't they look more caucasian? Wouldn't they not have the epicanthic eye fold or the asian-like hair and the tanned-dark skin which they have?)

Where did the pueblo Indians live in Texas?
Pueblo Indians (Spanish pueblo, town), American Indians living in compact, apartmentlike villages of stone or adobe in northwestern New Mexico and northeastern Arizona. They belong to four distinct linguistic groups, but the cultures of the different villages are closely related.
The eastern villages, located along the upper Rio Grande near Santa Fe and Albuquerque, include Isleta, Jemez, Nambe, Picuris, San Ildefonso, San Juan, Santa Clara, and Taos, whose inhabitants speak Tanoan languages, and Cochiti, Santa Ana, Santo Domingo, San Felipe, and Zia, where Keresan languages are spoken. Two slightly westward Keresan pueblos, Acoma and Laguna, along with the Zuni and Hopi pueblos, make up the western villages. Since about 1700 the Zuni have been concentrated in one large village in westernmost New Mexico. Their language shows no certain relation to any other language. The Hopi live on or near three mesas in northeastern Arizona. Their language is part of the Uto-Aztecan language family. The Hopi pueblos include Mishongnovi, Shongopovi, Shupapulovi, Sichomavi, and Oraibi and the Tewa-Hopi village of Hano, founded about 1700 by Tewa-speaking refugees.

What area did the pueblo and Navajo people settled in?
The Navajo people live in an area between the boundaries marked by the four sacred mountains and centered around the two central scared mountains. This older central part in just south of where the emergence place is said to be and is sometimes called Dine' Tah. These boundary mountains make a diamond shape in north eastern Arizona, north western New Mexico, southern Colorado and southern Utah. It is the high Colorado Plateau, Four Corners region. The four mountains are, always starting in the east, Mt Blanca, Mt Taylor, San Fransisco Peaks and Mt Hesperus.
Both the old oral history and religious stories and the modern archeology say that this area south of the La Plata mountains in the lower San Juan river valley in northern New Mexico is where people recognizable as Navajo (as opposed to other Apache related groups) first appeared about 900-1100 years ago.
Today the Navajo Nation occupies 27,000 square miles in the western and central portion of this region. This is about the size of Holland and Belgium put together. There are 300,000 tribal members.
There are today 21 different Pueblo people. They speak 8 different languages in four different language families (depending on how you count a language vs a dialect). They are also often grouped in 2 different broad culture groups based on similarity of structure and creation myths. The majority are along the Rio Grande valley in New Mexico. The rest are the Hopi (and Tewa at Hano) at the Hopi Mesas in Arizona , Zuni, Acoma and Laguna in western New Mexico. They all have lived in more or less the same places for 700 to 1100 years depending on the tribe. Some have been there since Anasazi times others migrated to where they are now between 1200-1300 AD as the Anasazi culture changed to modern Pueblo. All of the Pueblo people have creation stories that include a migration phase and most have stories of the emergence up from worlds before this one (as do the Navajo). Some have stories of specific clans that came from specific Anasazi sites. Today there are about 35,000 - 40,000 Pueblo people in Arizona and New Mexico.

How were the pueblos constructed?
If you are talking about the pueblo meaning village, they were usually built within the mountains. They also constructed they're houses out of adobe, which is the clay mixed with some other ingredients. Then the adobe was sculpted into apartment-like houses. These "apartments" were basically boxlike houses stacked on top of each other. One more thing is that the doors were never on the lowest level. They were always on upper levels with ladders leading to them.
Did the pueblo Indians live in clay type buildings?
Pueblo people built their house with dirt, rock, and straw. They made bricks out of mud and straw mixed together. Pueblo people stacked these bricks to make walls and they filled the gaps with mud. They used wooden posts to support the roofs in each room. It was covered with layers of sticks, after then grasses, mud, and finally plaster. They often painted their houses with red, yellow, white, and black bands. Some pueblo people had big houses that had over 100 rooms in it.
The buildings were made from clay bricks that were baked in the sun. These bricks are called adobe. Since the climate of the southwest was so dry, these bricks lasted for many years.
pueblos were clay homes used for hopi Indians or any natives that adapted to systematic agriculture hope it helps
