“Six governments have existed at Tubac: New Spain, Mexico, the United States of America (when the Gadsden Purchase acquired the southern part of what is now Arizona on December 30, 1853), New Mexico Territory, The Confederate States of America, and the Arizona Territory (State of Arizona).

“The State Park contains the ruins of the Spanish presidio founded in 1752 and the first European settlement in what later became Arizona.” — From the website of Tubac Presidio State Historic Park
