About Tucson
Inhabited for millennia by the Tohono O'odham and their predecessors, the present-day city of Tucson traces its origins to 18th-century Spanish America. The Spanish Army, aiming to secure their notional territory against Apache incursion, established the Presidio San Agustín del Tucsón in 1775; this small military outpost was the nucleus around which the city of Tucson flourished. A partial restoration of the old Presidio is just a five-minute walk from the Krikawa studio!
Upon Mexican independence, Tucson became one of the northernmost cities in the state of Sonora. It passed over to American control in 1854, the last territorial expansion of the contiguous United States. Tucson was Arizona's largest city until the early twentieth century and served as the capital of Arizona Territory until 1889.
Today, Tucson is a diverse and thriving city, drawing upon centuries of indigenous and Hispanic culture and welcoming thousands of new residents from the United States and abroad each year. Like our friendly rival city to the north, Tucson has become one of the fastest-growing cities in America while, in our case, retaining a laid-back Southwestern charm.
