586 TUSAYAN MIGRATION TRADITIONS [ETH. ANN, 19 
Evidence has now been gathered that other villages than Walpi existed 
in the Hopi country at the time of the arrival of the Teciia clans. 
Studies of the ruin of Sikyatki show that this pueblo was older than 
Walpi, and consequently that the Kokop clans which founded it came 
into the Hopi country before the Tciia. The Lenya were also in this 
region when joined by the Ala (who left Tokonabi with the Teiia clans) 
and probably were living at Lenyanobi. Moreover, there is every 
reason to suspect that Awatobi also was inhabited in that early epoch. 
Bearing on these probabilities, the testimony of one of the Ala men, 
who did not confuse the Hopi country with the pueblo of Walpi, but 
called the author’s attention to the error of such confusion, is highly 
important. In his account of the sequence he declared that the Honau 
clan was the first to settle Walpi; but that about the same time 
the Kokop clan founded Sikyatki and the Lenya clan Lenyanobi. 
The Ala and Teiia peoples came into the country at about the same 
time, by different routes, the former joining the Lenya at Lenyanobi 
and the latter the Honau at Walpi. Sikyatki and Awatobi were in 
existence at that time. Although the Honau clan had not been at 
enmity with the Kokop, as both came from Muiobi (Rio Grande) and 
Jemez, the pueblo of combined Teiia and Honau clans was not on 
amicable terms with the people of Sikyatki. The outcome of the 
hostilities which followed was the overthrow of the Kokop clan of 
Sikyatki, ‘‘ while the Honau-Tciia people of Walpi conquered Masauu, 
the tutelary god of Sikyatki, who had given the Kokop a site for 
their pueblo.” The combined clans of the Ala-Lenya pueblo gained 
kinship with the Honau-Teciia through the Ala who had lived with 
the Teiia at Tokonabi. These two pueblos were peacefully united by 
the moving of the Ala-Lefya to Walpi. The tragic overthrow of 
Awatobi by its rival, Walpi, occurred later. 
Thus it seems that at an early period there had settled in the Hopi 
country three groups of clans, the Honau, the Kokop, and the Lenya 
and kindred Patun. ‘The Honau had a pueblo on the site of Walpi; 
the Kokop were settled at Sikyatki; the Patun on the Middle mesa; and 
the Lenya at Lenyanobi or Kwactapahu. The kindred Teiia and Ala 
clans, which had previously lived together at Tokonabi, entered the 
country by different routes. The Teiia joined the Honau at Walpi; the 
Ala the Lefya at Lefyanobi or Kwactapahu. The Honau-Teiia and 
the Ala-Lefya later consolidated at Walpi, and the town of the latter 
was abandoned. The combined people of Walpi destroyed the Kokop 
settlementat Sikyatki, as above stated, adding some of the survivors to 
its population. With the assistance of the Middle mesa clans Walpi 
overthrew and destroyed Awatobi. The settlement of Patki people at 
Pakatcomo was abandoned, some of the clans from that place remoy- 
ing to Walpi. The Honani, Asa, and other eastern clans sought Walpi 
asa home. The details of the above history are best brought out by 
an intimate discussion of each clan legend.
