Jabanimó

Jabanimó[1] or Hawani Mo'o ("Raven's Head") was an Akimel O'odham leader involved in Native American uprisings during the 1750s, possibly including the 1751 Pima Revolt.

[4] He organized native resistance along the Santa Cruz River, encouraging residents of Mission San Xavier del Bac and Mission San Cosme y Damián de Tucsón to resist the Jesuit missionaries.

[5][3] In 1756, Jabanimó led a group of O'odham and Papagos against San Xavier del Bac.

[6][7] Governor Juan Antonio de Mendoza [es] and Captain Francisco Elías Gonzalez led a punitive expedition in response, defeating Jabanimó and his followers near Gila Bend.

[7][3] Fifteen natives were killed,[3] but Jabanimó himself survived by hiding among the reeds on the shore of the Gila River.
