  period 
  

   is 
  not 
  known, 
  though 
  the 
  evidence 
  tends 
  to 
  show 
  that 
  they 
  raided 
  

   Ear 
  down 
  into 
  Texas 
  to 
  the 
  territory 
  they 
  have 
  occupied 
  in

  years, 
  viz, 
  the 
  extensive 
  plains 
  from 
  the 
  Rocky 
  Mountains 
  

  

  eastward 
  into 
  Indian 
  Territory 
  and 
  Texas 
  to 
  about 
  97°. 
  Upon 
  the 
  

   south 
  Shoshonean 
  territory 
  was 
  limited 
  generally 
  by 
  the 
  Colorado 
  

   River. 
  The 
  Chemehuevi 
  lived 
  on 
  both 
  hanks 
  of 
  the 
  river 
  between 
  

   the 
  Mohave 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  and 
  the 
  Cuchan 
  on 
  the 
  south, 
  above 
  and 
  

   below 
  Bill 
  Williams 
  Fork.' 
  The 
  Kwaiantikwoket 
  also 
  lived 
  to 
  the 
  

   east 
  of 
  the 
  river 
  in 
  Arizona 
  about 
  Navajo 
  Mountain, 
  while 
  the 
  Tu- 
  

   sayan 
  (Moki) 
  hail 
  established 
  their 
  seven 
  pueblos, 
  including 
  one 
  

   founded 
  by 
  people 
  of 
  Tafioan 
  stock, 
  to 
  the 
  east 
  of 
  the 
  Colorado 
  Chi- 
  

   quito. 
  In 
  the 
  southwest 
  Shoshonean 
  tribes 
  had 
  pushed 
  across 
  Cali- 
  

   fornia, 
  occupying 
  a 
  wide 
  band 
  of 
  country 
  to 
  the 
  Pacific. 
  In 
  their 
  

   extension 
  northward 
  they 
  had 
  reached 
  as 
  far 
  as 
  Tulare 
  Lake, 
  from 
  

   which 
  territory 
  apparently 
  they 
  had 
  dispossessed 
  the 
  Mariposan 
  

   tribes, 
  leaving 
  a 
  small 
  remnant 
  of 
  that 
  linguistic 
  family 
  near 
  Fort 
  

   Tejon." 
  

  

  A 
  little 
  farther 
  north 
  they 
  had 
  crossed 
  the 
  Sierras 
  and 
  occupied 
  the 
  

   heads 
  of 
  San 
  Joaquin 
  and 
  Kings 
  Rivers. 
  Northward 
  they 
  occupied 
  

   nearly 
  the 
  whole 
  of 
  Nevada, 
  being 
  limited 
  on 
  the 
  west 
  by 
  the 
  Sierra 
  

   Nevada. 
  The 
  entire 
  southeastern 
  part 
  of 
  Oregon 
  was 
  occupied
