 death. He almost made himself a king 

 by his marvelous energy and statecraft 

 put forth among the New England trilies.

 porary kingdom on the ashes of the colo- 

 nies." King Philip has been the subject 

 of several poems, tales, and histories. 

 The literature includes: Church, History 

 of King Philip's War, 1836; Apes, Eulogy 

 on King Philip, 1836; Freeman, Civiliza- 

 tion and Barbarism, 1878; Markham,

 importantpuebloruin of theChaco canyon 

 group of N. w. New INIexico, 65 m. w. and 

 2 m. s. of Pueblo Bonito. It is not in

 sand hill 200 yds. w. of a dry wash which 

 enters the Chaco about 4 m. below. Its 

 length was 145 ft, greatest width 50 ft. 

 A semicircular wall, 450 ft long, connects 

 the N. E. and s. e. corners, inclosing an ir- 

 regular court. In the wall at a point 285 

 ft from the s. e. corner of the building 

 was a circular tower, 4 or 5 ft in diame-

 ft high. On the w. side 50 ft of exterior 

 wall still stands, 26 ft above the debris 

 and 38 ft above ground. The wall is 

 36 in. thick at the base, diminishing in 



thickness a few inches at the base of each 

 additional story. Portions of a fourth- 

 story wall still stand ; the original height 

 was 5 stories. The masonry, which is of 

 dark-brown sandstone, consists of alter- 

 nating courses of large and small stones. 

 There are 3 small windows, 6 by 8 in. 

 Four circular kivas, 10 by 16 ft in di- 

 ameter, are built within the walls, and 

 one, 35 ft in diameter, partly within the 

 front wall and partly within the court. 

 The smaller kivas are built within rec- 

 tangular rooms, and the space between 

 the room and the kiva walls is filled in 

 with masonry. An ancient system of ir- 

 rigation works, consisting of stone dam, 

 wasteway reservoir, and ditches, is plainly 

 traceable. (e. l. h. )
