Cevap

Spanish efforts to suppress Native American religious ceremonies and enforce Catholic conversion.
The correct answer is correct because the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 was directly caused by Spanish colonizers' intensive efforts to suppress traditional Pueblo religious ceremonies and enforce conversion to Catholicism, leading Popé and other Pueblo leaders to advocate for a total rejection of Spanish culture and religion.
