(File:Soda Dam on Jemez Creek.jpg|thumb|left|Soda Dam on Jemez Creek, north of Jemez Springs)The Jemez Valley is thought to have been inhabited for the last 4500 years. The Spaniards who visited the area beginning in 1540 reported multiple Native American pueblos (villages), in the valley. The Franciscan mission church San José de los Jemez was built just to the north of the current village in 1621 but was abandoned around the 1640s. Today the ruins are the site of Jemez State Monument. Following the Pueblo Revolt the Jemez people began converging at the current Pueblo of Jemez. In the nineteenth century the valley was given over to mostly agrarian and pastoral uses.WEB,weblink Jemez History, Jemezsprings.org, 2009-06-08, dead,weblink" title="web.archive.org/web/20100216133755weblink">weblink 2010-02-16, Jemez Springs' post office opened in 1907.
