Welcome to Colorado

Colorado's history is as dramatic as its vast plains, rugged mountains, and grand plateaus. Many peoples shaped the state's past, including the ancestral Puebloan peoples, whose civilization dates back thousands of years; the Utes, who occupied the Rockies for centuries; numerous other native peoples who lived in the region; Hispano pioneers, the state's first permanent non-Indian settlers; and the men and women who built cities, dug mines, and planted farms.
