CU8HING] HABITATIONS AFFECTED BY ENVIRONMENT. 481 



first on the overhanging cliff-tops, then on mesas, and farther and farther 

 away, of great, many-storied towns, any one of which was named, in 

 consequence of the bringing together in it of many houses and clans, 

 thlu el Ion ne, from thlu a, many springing up, and el Ion a, that which 

 stands, or those which stand; in other words, " many built standing 

 together." This cannot be regarded as referring to the simple fact that 

 a village is necessarily composed of many houses standing together. 

 The name for any other village than a communal pueblo is t! na Icw'in ne, 

 from Una — many sitting around, and kw'in ne, place of. This term is ap- 

 plied by the Zuuis to all villages save their own and those of ourselves, 

 which latter they regard as Pueblos, in their acceptation of the above 

 native word. 



Here, then, iu strict accordance with the teachings of myth, folklore 

 and tradition, I have used the linguistic argument as briefest and most 

 convincing in indicating the probable sequence of architectural types 

 in the evolution of the Pueblo ; from the brush lodge, of which ouly the 

 name survives, to the recent and present terraced, many-storied, com- 

 munal structures, which we may find throughout New Mexico, Arizona, 

 and contiguous parts of the neighboring Territories. 1

 America, by Adolph F. Bandelier, one of the most indefatigable explorers and careful 

 students of early Spanish history in America.
