32 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. 85 



The general arrangement is the same as that obtained from the 

 father of my informant in 1911-12 {426. Ann. Rep., Bur, Amer. 

 Ethnol., p. 244), but the stations here assigned to some of the indi- 

 vidual officers are probably more nearly correct, particularly the 

 locations of the mikos. 



KEALEDJI 



Figure 10 shows the Kealedji square. 



The hoktagi immiko, " women's chief," supervised the women's 

 dance. There are now no regular water carriers. The imalas 

 formerly sat in the north cabin, but now there are no officers so 

 called. The beds are called by the names of the clans which occupy 

 them. If the asimbonaia is wanted to deliver a speech, he is called 

 over to the miko's seat for that purpose. For tastanagis the best 

 men are chosen. The ta'palas are changed every four years. In 

 former times they had a regular four days' busk, but now it lasts 

 for but one day and there is no feather dance. 



In the match games they played against Okchai, Wiogufki, and 

 Tulsa. 



The Hathagas are Wind, Bear, Panther, and Turkey ; the Tcilokis 

 are Raccoon, Deer, and Aktayatci. In ancient times these moieties 

 were exogamous. 



The names of the present officers are as follows : 



miko Kasihta Yahola (Raccoon) 



heniha Heniha Imafutci (Wind) 



miko apokta Kayomulgi (Raccoon) 



hoktagi immiko Wiwohka Yahola (Raccoon) 



heniha Oikas Hadjo (Wind)

" " Itco Imata Fiksiko (Deer) 



tutka oktididja Ahali Imafe 



hilis hoboia Talkona Hadjo (Wind) 



" " Hotalgi Fiksiko (Wind) 



tastanagi Tastanak Tcapko 



" Tastanakutci 



" Inheniha (= heniha) 



" Tatkona Hadjo 



The plan of the revived square ground of the Kealedji agrees 

 in all essentials with the one given me in 1912 from memory by a 

 very old man, except that in recent times the Deer clan seems to 

 have lost its importance or died out. It is interesting to find that old
