CAMPO CANADASAGA 



[b. a. e. 



were all up each gens was in the position 

 to which it was entitled by the regulations 

 that were connected with ancient beliefs 

 and customs. For particular ceremonies, 

 especially the great annual sun dance 

 (q.v. ),the Kiowa, Cheyenne, and others 

 camped in a circle made up of the differ- 

 ent political divisions in fixed and regular 

 order. 



The tribal circle, each segment com- 

 posed of a clan, gens, or band, madealiving 

 picture of tribal organization and respon- 

 sibilities. It impressed upon the beholder 

 the relative position of kinship groups 

 and their interdependence, both for the 

 maintenance of order and government 

 within and for defense against enemies 

 from without, while the opening to the e. 

 and the position of the ceremonial tents 

 recalled the religious rites and obligations 

 by which the many parts were held to- 

 gether in a compact whole.

Campo (Span. : 'camp'). A settlement 

 and reservation of 18 Diegueiios, 170 m. 

 from Mission Tule River agency, Cal. 

 The land, comprising 280 acres, is a water- 

 less, unproductive tract for which a pat- 

 ent has been issued. — Ind. Aff. Rep., 175, 

 1902. 



Campti. A village, probably of the 

 Natchitoches, formerly on Red r. of Louis- 

 iana, about 20 m. above Natchitoches. 

 In his report to President Jefferson in 

 1805, Sibley (Hist. Sketches, 1806) says 

 the town was inhabited by the French, 

 the Indians having left it on account of 

 sickness in 1792. (a. c. f. ) 



Canaake. Mentioned as the name of 

 an ancient Florida tribe, of which a rem- 

 nant still existed in 1821. The general 

 context of the reference indicates that the 

 form is a bad misprint for Calusa, q. v. 

 Canaacke. — Peniere (1821) in Mor.se, Rep. to Sec. 

 War, app., 311, 1822. Cana ake,— Ibid., 149. 



Canada. (Huron: Ixindda, 'village,' 

 'settlement.' — Cartier). A term used to 

 designate all the Indians of Canada, and 

 also by early writers in a more restricted 

 sense. Cartier designates the chief of 

 Stadacone (Quebec) as the king of Can- 

 ada, and applies the name Canada to the 

 country immediately adjacent. His vo- 

 cabularies indicate an Iroquoian (Huron) 

 people living there. The early French 

 writers used the term Canadiens to des- 

 ignate the Algonquian tribes on or near 

 the St Lawrence, especially the Nascapee 

 and the Montagnais tribes below the Sague- 

 nay, as distinguished from the Algonkin 

 and Micmac. The New England writers 

 sometimes designated as Canada Indians 

 those Abnaki who had removed from 



Maine to St Francis and Becancour.

Canadasaga {Gd-na-dd-se'^-ge/ at the 

 new town ' ). A former Seneca town near 

 the present Geneva, N. Y. On account of 

 its size it was for a time considered one 

 of the chief towns of the tribe. In 1700 

 it was situated IJ m. s. e. of Geneva, but 

 in 1732, on account of the ravages of 

 smallpox, the inhabitants removed 2 or 3 

 m. s. w., to the s. bank of Burrell's (Slate 

 Rock) cr. At the breaking out of the 

 French and Indian war this site was also 

 abandoned, and the inhabitants moved to 

 Canadasaga brook, or Castle brook, s. w. of 

 Geneva. Here, in 1756, a stockade was 

 built for their protection by Sir William 

 Johnson. The town became known as 

 New Castle, and was destroyed by Sullivan 

 in 1779. (j. M. J. N. B. H. )
