In the month of November of 1858, the city of Denver was founded. It started out as a mining town which became well-known during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush situated within Western Kansas Territory. The summer of 1858, a group of gold prospectors arrived from Lawrence, in the state of Kansas and they established Montana City on the banks of the South Platte River. This was the first settlement which will later become established as Denver. Soon after its beginnings, the site faded. By summertime of 1859 on the other hand, it was abandoned in favor of St. Charles City and in favor of Auraria, named after the gold mining township with the same name situated in Georgia.
