yes, it is. The very map to cibola(7 cities of gold). There is a portrait of Francisco coranado with his wood cross.They say he lost it when he fell off his horse during his second expidition.
Because he was looking for one of the (supposed) seven cities of gold. CIbola is where he went and found it was nothing but buildings of hay and animal skins.
Coronado did not find the Seven Cities of Gold because they were legendary and likely never existed. The stories of the cities were more of a myth or exaggeration rather than based on actual locations. Coronado's expedition did explore the American Southwest but did not discover the fabled cities.
