100 SUMMER CEREMONIALS 
stood opposite them and both began the monotonous song 
and accompanying dance. The flag leaves, borne by the 
procession, Avere collected together and carried into a 
neighboring house and a squaw sprinkled the dancers with 
pinches of sacred meal. 
After they had danced at the west side of the pueblo 
they marched to the small open space which opens in the 
north side, then to the Sacred Plaza, then to that west of 
the old Spanish church now in ruins, and finally at about 
ten o'clock in the evening to the estufa adjoining the house 
of the Cacique of the Sun. Here they unmasked and 
danced apparently the same dance as in the plazas, but as 
I was unable to enter I know nothing of their ceremonials 
in that room. 
On the following day the Ku-ko and Lar-slio-wah-wey 
danced all day .in the open places, passing at intervals in- 
to the estufa. A grand feast was given them about noon 
time in that place, the food being brought to them by their 
squaws. 
The Koy-e-a-ma-shi kept up a continuous exhibition of 
their foolery in the Sacred Plaza during the day, a spec- 
tacle which was watched throughout the afternoon by the 
men, women, and children of the pueblo congregated on 
the neighboring housetops and in available places in the 
plaza itself. 
Several Kor-hdk-sJii dances occurred in the course of 
the summer, all resembling in general the one already de- 
scribed, but in none of them was there a procession of 
Ko-ko to the pueblo on the night before the dance or a 
visit to the Sacred Lake for water. 
IIAY-A-MA-SHE-QUE. 
As the season wore on there occurred a tablet-dance^ 
1 So-called from the fact that the daucers wore painted tablets on their lieacjs.
