Abstract (2. Language): 
This article discusses the changes that took place in the lives of the Pueblos of the Soulhwest after the arrival of the white man. The aim of the Christian missionaries was to convert these people.Initially most Native Americans were not antagonistic towards Christianity, but the insistence of the missionaries upon a total devotion to one God resulted in centuries of conflict because the Native Americans were unwilling to disown their traditional beliefs. The Indians' native religion was suppressed; their ceremonies were forbidden; transgressors where whipped or executed. Despite the efforts of the missionaries, they were not wholly successful in converting the natives because the Pueblos were converted to Christianity in order to survive and only by modifying Christianity according to their traditional beliefs.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu makale beyaz adamın gelişinden sonra güneybatı Pueblo Kızılderililerinin yaşamında rneydana gelen değişiklikleri ele almaktadır. Hıristiyan misyonerlerin amacı bu insanların dini inançlarını değiştirmekti. Başlangıçta Kızılderililer Hıristiyanlığa karşı koymadılar, ancak misyonerlerin tek Tanrıya bağlılık konusundaki ısrarları, yüzyıllar boyunca sürecek ihtilafa sebebiyet verdi çünkü Kızılderililer kendi geleneksel inançlarından vazgeçmek niyetinde değillerdi. Kızılderililerin dini bastırıldı, törenleri yasaklandı, yasaklara uymayanlar ise kırbaçlandı veya öldürüldü. Misyonerler tüm çabalarına rağmen, Kızılderililerin inançlarını değiştirmek konusunda tam bir başarı elde edemediler çünkü Pueblolar hayatta kalabilmek için dinlerini değiştirmişlerdi ve bunu da Hıristiyanlığı kendi geleneksel inançlarına göre uyarlayarak vapmışlardı.
