KAWCHOGOTTINE KAWTA 



[b. a. 



Kawchogottine ('dwellers among the 

 large hares'). A division of the Kaw- 

 chodinne. Petitot, in 1867 (MS., B. A. 

 E.), located them on the border of the 

 wooded region n. e. of Ft Good Hope, 

 and in 1875 (Bull. Soc. de Geog. Paris, 

 chart, 1875) on the headwaters of An- 

 derson r., N. of Great Bear lake. The 

 same authority (Autour du lac des Es- 

 claves, 362, 1891 ) says their habitat is on 

 the large lakes of the interior e. of Mac- 

 kenzie r.

Kawia. The name, of uncertain deri- 

 vation, of a Shoshonean division in s. (.Cal- 

 ifornia, affiliated linguistically with the 

 Aguas Calientes, Juanenos, and Luiseiios. 

 They inhabit the n. tongue of the Colo- 

 rado desert from Banning s. e. at least as 

 far as Salton, as also the headwaters of 

 Santa Margarita r., where the Kawia res. 

 is situated. Formerly they are said to 

 have extended into San Bernardino val- 

 ley, but it seems more likely that this 



was occui)ied, as at present, by the Se- 

 rranos. They are not to be confounded 

 with a Yokuts tribe bearing the same 

 name. They were first visited in 1776 by 

 Fray Francisco Garces, who referred to 

 them under their Mohave name, "Jecu- 

 ich," obtained from his guide. At this 

 time they lived about the n. slopes of the 

 San Jacinto mts. an<l to the northward, 

 and roamed e. to the Colorado, but their 



principal seat was about San Gorgonio 

 pass. Burton (H. R. Ex. Doc. 76, 34th 

 Cong. , 3d sess., 115, 1857 ) gave 3,500 as the 

 number of men alone in 1856, evidently 

 an exaggeration. There were 793 Indians 

 assembled under the name "Coahuila" 

 at all the Mission reservations in 1885, 

 while the Indians on Cahuilla res. under 

 the Mission Tule r. agency in 1894 num- 

 bered 151, and in 1902, 159. This reser-
