The correct answer is B) great missionary.

During the great missionary period, the Pueblo sites were abandoned and building styles evolved. 

During the 1700s, Spanish missionaries arrived in the region of what today is New Mexico to evangelize the Native American Indians into Christianity. They were the congregation of the Franciscans that tried to covert the Pueblo people. As usually happened with this process at that time, Indians were reluctant to convert and drop their traditions.
