 'to live,' and in Xahuatl uliomc might 

 be derived from all water, oiiii> two, 'two 

 waters,' referring to the ocean tide which 

 ascends the river to this point; but after 

 all the word may be of Vacoregue origin. ) 

 A subdivision of the Cahita, speaking 

 the Vacoregue dialect, and the name of 

 its pue1)lo, situated 4 leagues above the 

 mouth of Kio del Fuerte, x. w. Sinaloa, 

 Mexicf). The tradition exists among 

 them that they came from the x. ; in 

 that country they fixe<l paradise and the 

 dwelling place of the souls of their dead. 

 They were of agreeable disposition and of 

 larger size than the other inhabitants of 

 the river valley. They are said to have 

 uttered cries and lamentations for their 

 dead during one entire year, for an hour 

 at sunrise and another at sunset. Al- 

 though speaking the same language as 

 the inhabitants of a number of neighbor- 

 ing {Hieblos, the Ahome formed a dis- 

 tinct organization. The pueblo of Ahome 

 liecame the center of the Batut'ari settle- 

 ment under the Jesuit missionaries.
