Strana 487 - F6 and erected a village on the ruins of the old Palace, but were expelled by Vargas in 1692. In 1706 the town was reestablished with 90 Indians by the governor of the province under the name Nuestra Señora de los Remedios de Galisteo, but it was also called Santa Maria.
Strana 467 - Cienega, y los Pecos por la parte del Sur, se apoderaron de las casas de los Indios Tlascaltecas, que vivian en el barrio de Analco y pegaron fuego a la Capilla de San Miguel.
Strana 420 - Pifionero in Spanish and Sho-hak-ka in Queres), a handsome bird, which ruthlessly plunders the nut-bearing pines, uttering discordant shrieks and piercing cries. The forest of the Potrero de las Vacas is therefore not so silent and solemn as other wooded areas in that region, where a solitary raven or crow appears to be the only living creature. To the right of the trail yawns the deep chasm of the Canada Honda [28:21], from which every word spoken on the brink re-echoes with wonderful distinctness.
Strana 437 - It is two stories high in some places, very well preserved, and built of fairly regular parallelepipeds of tufa. The woodwork in it was evidently destroyed by fire, and much charred corn is found in the ruins. The average size of 118 rooms on the ground floor, which are all in the pueblo with the exception of about ten, is 5.0 by 2.8 meters (16 ft. 5 in. by 9 ft. 2 in.). This is a large area in comparison with the size of older ruins. I noticed but one estufa, and the pottery bears a recent character.
Strana 487 - Galisteo killed the resident priest, besides the father custodian of New Mexico, the missionaries of San Marcos and Pecos, who were on their way to give warning, and several colonists. After the remaining Spanish colonists had been driven out of the country the...
Strana 25 - Mexico by the Bureau of American Ethnology and the School of American Archaeology of the Archaeological Institute of America in 1910 and 1911, other results being the papers on the Physiography of the Rio Grande Valley, New Mexico, in Relation to Pueblo Culture, the Ethnobotany of the Tewa Indians, and the Ethnozoology of the Tewa Indians, either published or in press as bulletins of the Bureau.
Strana 283 - This is one of a number of pitfalls that have been discovered at points in this region where game trails converged. One of the best of these is that at Navawi. It was so placed that game driven down the mesa from toward the mountains or up the trail from either of two side canyons could hardly fail to be entrapped. The trap is an excavation in the rock which could have been made only with great difficulty, as the cap of tufa is here quite hard. The pit is bottle-shaped, except that the mouth is oblong....
Strana 298 - ... northwest about a mile and a half the yellow rock of Shu-fin-ne dominates the plain, and to the west and south lie numbers of the detached masses which I have spoken of as geological islands. Southwest about ten miles the round black bulk of Tu-yo rises from the edge of the Rio Grande valley.
Strana 538 - From the investigation made at that time by direction of Governor Francisco Antonio Marin del Valle, it appears that the body of Fray Geronimo de la Liana was found buried in the ruins of the church of Tajique, and not at Cuaray. The Indian Tempano here referred to was from the Salines, and well known in the beginning of the past century as a faithful and reliable man. His name appears in several documents of the time. 1 Vetancurt, Crinica, p. 324: "Que administraba un religioso que escap6 del rebellion...
Strana 216 - Yuge-uingge; but the winter people, after wandering over the eastern plains for a long while, at last went in search of their brethren, and established themselves near San Juan in sight of the other's village at Chamita. Finally it was agreed upon that a bridge should be built across the Rio Grande, and the official wizards went to work and constructed it by laying a long feather of a parrot over the stream from one side, and a long feather of a magpie from the other. As soon as the plumes met over...
