Juan Bautista Nentvig (also spelled Nentuig) was a priest born in Glatz, Germany (now Klodzko, Poland) on March 28, 1713. He was active in the Pimaria Alta (now partially in Sonora, Mexico and the state of Arizona) where he worked with the various Piman Tribes, including the Upper Pima and Opata. He began there in 1752. He documented their life and customs extensively, although some of his writings of the medicinal values of native plants appear to be somewhat exaggerated.
