Luis Oacpicagigua

Luis Oacpicagigua (O'odham: Brain Splicer[1]) or Luis of Sáric (died 1755) was a Pima Indian (Akimel O'odham) leader in the Spanish province of Sáric, now the far north of the Mexican state of Sonora. Oacpicagigua served as a provincial "Indian governor" and fought for the Spanish government against enemy tribes, but later rebelled against the Spanish in the 1751 Pima Revolt.[2] The revolt failed in 1752, Oacpicagigua and his lieutenant Luis of Pitic were summoned for questioning and subsequently arrested, and Oacpicagigua died in Horcasitas jail in 1755.[3]
