Arivaca. A former Piman village w. of 

 Tubaf, s. Ariz., dating from prior to 1733. 

 It was abandoned during the Pima revolt 

 of 1751, before which time it was a visita 

 of the mission of Guevavi. (Bancroft, 

 Ariz, and N. Mex., 385-6, 1889.)

Arivaipa (Nevome Pima: aarivapa, 

 'girls,' possibly applied to these people 

 on account of some unmanly act). An 

 Apache tribe that formerly made its 

 home in the canyon of Arivaipa cr., a 

 trilnitary of the Rio San Pedro, s. Ariz., 

 although like the Chiricahua and other 

 Apache of Arizona they raided far south- 

 ward and were reputed to have laid 

 waste every town in n. Mexico as far as 

 the Gila prior to the Gadsden purchase in 

 1853, and with having exterminated the 

 Sobaipuri, a Piman tribe, in the latter 

 part of the 18th century. In 1863 a com- 

 pany of California volunteers, aided liy 

 some friendly Apache, at Old Camp Grant, 

 on the San Pedro, attacked an Arivaipa 

 rancheria at the head of the canyon, kill- 

 ing 58 of the 70 inhabitants, men, women, 

 and children— the women and children 

 being slain li)' the friendly Indians, the 

 men by the Californians — in revenge for 

 their atrocities. After this loss they sued 

 for jjeace, and their depredations practical- 

 ly ceased. About 1872 they were removed 

 to San Carlos agency, where, with the 

 Pinalenos, apparently their nearest kin- 

 dred, they numbered 1,051 in 1874. Of 

 this number, however, the Arivaipa 

 formed a very small part. The remnant 

 of the tribe is now under San Carlos and 

 Ft Apache agencies on the White Moun- 

 tain res., but its population is not sep- 

 arately enumerated, (f. w. h. )

Arizonac (jirob. 'small springs' or 'few 

 springs'). Evidently a former Papago 

 rancheria situated between Guevavi and 

 Saric, in Sonora, Mexico, just below the 

 present s. boundary of Arizona, not far 

 from the site of Nogales. In 1736-41 

 the finding in its vicinity of some balls of 

 native silver of fabulous size caused a 

 large influx of treasure seekers, and 

 through the fame that the place thus 

 temporarily accjuired, its name, in the 

 form Arizona, was later applied to the 

 entire country thereabout, and, when 

 New Mexico was divided, was adopted 

 as the name of the new Territory. In 

 1764-67 Arizonac was a visita of the mis- 

 sion of Saric, on the upper waters of 

 Rio Altar, Sonora. See Bancroft, Ariz, 

 and N. Mex., 362, 371, 1889. (f. w. h. ) 



Arizpe (according to Bandelier a cor- 

 rupted abbreviation of Ilar-aritz-pa, the 

 native name, while Hardy says it is from 

 the Opata aripa, ' the great congrega- 

 tion of ants'). A former Opata pueblo 

 on Rio Sonora, about lat. 30° 25^, Sonora, 

 Mexico. It became the seat of a Spanish 

 mission in 1648, and was afterward the 

 capital of the state, but its importance as 

 a town decreased after the removal of the 

 capital to Ures, in 1832, and subsequent 

 Apache depredations. Arizpe is identical 

 with the Arispa of Castaneda and the 

 Ispa of Jaramillo, visited by Coronado in 

 1540. The population of the mission was 

 416 in 1678, 316 in 1730, and 359 in 1777 

 (Doc. Hist. Mex., 4th ser., i, 469, 1856, 

 and authors quoted below). It is no 

 longer an Indian town. There are ruins 

 N. w. of the village, (f. w. h.)

Arkansite. A variety of the mineral 

 brookite, so called from having been dis- 

 covered at Magnet Cove, Ark. (Dana, 

 Text-book Mineralogy, 278, 1888) ; from 

 the place and ethnic name Arkansas and 

 the English suffix -ite. (a. f. c. ) 



Arkokisa. A people formerly living in 

 villages chiefly along lower Trinity r., 

 Tex. The Spanish presidio of San Agus- 

 tin de Ahumada was founded among 

 them in 1756, and 50 Tlascaltec families 

 from s. Mexico were settled there, but 

 the post was abandoned in 1772. They 

 were allied with the Aranama and the 

 Attacapa, and were on friendly terms also 

 with the Bidai, but their linguistic affin- 

 ity is not known. According to Sibley
