Through the 18th century, the Spanish Jesuits built a string of missions throughout the northeastern Sonoran Desert along the Santa Cruz River. The Jesuits founded Mission San Cayetano de Calabazas in 1756 as part of the reorganizing settlements following the upheavals of the Pima Revolt of 1751. Meant to be a visita (visiting station), Calabazas was a satellite outpost associated with larger Mission Guevavi and later with Mission San José de Tumacácori. The mission at Calabazas lasted only 30 years, between 1756 and 1786, but continued to figure importantly in the cultural landscape.
