FEWKES] THE TOUA CLANS 587 
It may then be stated that while the main bodies of the three groups 
of clans from the north (Tokonabi), the south (Palatkwabi), and the 
east (Muiobi), settled at Walpi in the sequence given, individual clans 
of these groups were, so far as is known, of equal antiquity there; thus, 
while the majority of the clans from the Rio Grande were late arrivals, 
the Honau and Kokop were among the first to settle at the East mesa. 
The author has chosen the advent of the Snake clans as the epoch 
of the founding of modern Walpi, and for consecutive history he will 
consider the arrival of the clan groups in their order, namely, from 
Tokonabi, Palatkwabi, and Muiobi. 
CLANS FROM TOKONABI 
Tota Crans 
The clans known as the Teiia and the Ala‘ say that they formerly 
lived together at Tokonabi, which place, so far as can be learned, was 
near the junction of the Little Colorado with the Great Colorado, in 
southern Utah. The Teiia, or Snake, clans were dominant from the 
very first in Walpi, and their chief was, as late as the end of the 
seventeenth century, governor of the pueblo, for he it was who is said 
to have sent to the Tewa people of the Rio Grande for aid against 
hostile nomads. 
The following list contains the names of the men and women of the 
Snake clans now (January 1, 1900) living at Walpi:

1The Ala, by union with the Lefiya, later became the Ala-Lenya. There is no evidence that the 
latter clan ever lived at Tokonabi.
