When the Roman Catholic Church began to evangelize, its efforts were at first resisted. It is believed the Virgin Mary appeared twice to the chief of the local tribe, once in 1651 in a river canyon when she told him to be baptized, and again, when he was still refusing baptism, on September 8, 1652, she appeared in his hut. This time he is said to have tried to grab her and she vanished, leaving behind a small painting of her.
