Awashonks. The woman chief of Se- 

 conet, R. I., whose fame obscured that 

 of Tolony, her husband ( Drake, Inds. of 

 N. Am., 249, 1880). Her name is signed 



until 1680, when, in the Pueblo rebellion, 

 which began 'in August, the Awatobi 

 missionary. Father Figueroa, was mur- 

 dered. At this time the Awatobi people 

 numbered 800. Henceforward no Span- 

 ish priests were established among the 

 Hopi, although in 1700 Father Garay- 

 coechea visited Awatobi, where he bap- 

 tized 73 natives, but was unsuccessful in 

 his attempt to reestablish missions among 

 them. In November of the same year, 

 owing to the friendly feeling which the 

 Awatobi are said to have had for the 

 Spanish friars, their kindred, especially 

 of Walpi and INIashongnovi, joined in 

 an attack on Awatobi at night, setting fire 

 to the pueblo, killing many of its inhabi- 

 tants, including all the men, and carrying 

 off women and children to the other 

 pueblos, chiefly to Mashongnovi, Walpi, 

 and Oraibi. Awatobi was never again in-

Awatobi ('high place of the bow,' re- 

 ferring to the Bow people). A former 

 pueblo of the Hopi on a mesa about 9 m. 

 s. E. of Walpi, N. E. Ariz. It was one of 

 the original villages of the province of 

 Tusayan of the early Spaniards, being 

 visited by Tobar and Cardenas of Coro- 

 nado's expedition in 1540, by Espejo in 

 1583, and by Oiiate in 1598. It became 

 the seat of the Franciscan mission of San 

 Bernardino in 1629, under Father Porras, 

 who was poisoned by the Hopi in 1633; 

 but the endeavor to Christianize the Hopi 

 at this and other pueblos was continued 



habited. The walls of the old Spanish 

 church are still partly standing. See
