Pueblos hold Mon te zuma fire as sacred rite amid faiths clash
The Pueblo people remain tied to Montezuma worship alongside Catholicism and Protestant influences. A sacred eternal fire at Toor near Taos is tended by a small group while others keep distance. Antonio Joseph, a Taos County judge, recalls witnessing the fire as a symbol of ancient tyranny and ongoing ritual. A New York visitor aided the fire's preservation, and locals fear Montezuma’s return if the flame ever dies.
