Of the ahove, the Tu'kuari'ka formerly occupied the country about the 

 headwaters of Yellowstone river, the present head of the band Ten'doi, 

 being also chief of the tribe. By birth he is a half Banak — or more 

 properly Panai'ti. The Ti'vati'ka occupied the southern interior of 

 Nevada, and were found, in 1871, living principally in the mountainous 

 regions where there was an abundance of the Nut Pine (Pinus edulis), 

 upon the fruit of which they subsisted to a great extent. 



Panai'ti. 



This tribe was formerly located west and north-west of the area appro- 

 priated by the Sho'shoni, embracing the eastern half of Oregon, Western 

 Idaho and possibly a part of Washington Territory. According to exten- 

 sive vocabularies collected by the writer, the languages of the two tribes 

 are linguistically closely related, much more so than one is usually led to 

 believe. The general designation for these Indians, as well as for many 

 more along the coast side of the Sierra Nevada, is Digger. The following 

 is a brief synonomy : 

 Panai'ti. Tribal designation. 



Banai'ti. So called by the Sho'shoni.
