Mission San Ambrosio del Búsanic y Tucubavia


San Ambrosio del Búsanic y Tucubavia was a Spanish mission in the Sonoran desert.

History

Búsanic was founded around 1690. Jesuit missionary Eusebio Kino visited in 1790 and in 1796.
Ciprián, the son of Luis Oacpicagigua, raided Búsanic in 1759.
By the 1760s, Búsanic was a visita of Mission Santa Gertrudis del Sáric. It was abandoned by 1766 due to ongoing Apache raids, although the Franciscan missionary Juan Agorreta was nominally stationed there in 1768.
