If I were one of the Hispanic Explorers, first at all, I will ask my people don't be rude, and to be friendly to the Zuni, we should guarantee peace. Secondly, I would tell the Zuni we respect their religion and culture, we do not harm to them. We are not in order to make troubles to come here. And then I would like to join their lives to express we are friendly to them and we hope we can get well on each other. I think the Zuni people will accept us instead of violence.
I think you are right. If the Spaniards had approached the Zuni with kindness and acceptance, they likely would have been able to coexist in peace. Nice job!
