Nambé Oweenge Pueblo ( nahm/BAY; Tewa: Nambé Oweengé / Nąngbeʼe Ôwîngeh, IPA: [nɑ̃̀ŋbèʔ ʔówîŋɡè]) is a federally recognized tribe of the Pueblo people in Santa Fe County, New Mexico. For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined the community as a census-designated place (CDP).
The Pueblo of Nambé has existed since the 14th century and is a member of the Eight Northern Pueblos. It was a primary cultural, economic, and religious center at the time of the arrival of Spanish colonists in the very early 17th century. Nambé was one of the Pueblos that organized and participated in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 which expelled the Spanish from New Mexico for twelve years.
The community of Nambe, New Mexico, is separate from the pueblo.
