Answer 1

It is difficult to determine with certainty what would have happened if Mission San Francisco de los Tejas was not burned when the missionaries abandoned it. However, based on the given options, the most likely prediction would be that the Caddo would have taken over the mission and used it to minister to other Indigenous people. This aligns with the historical trend of Indigenous communities repurposing mission buildings and structures for their own purposes after the departure of the missionaries.
