Kuasse. An unidentified village or tribe 

 mentioned by Joutel in 1687 as situated n. 

 or N. AV. of Maligne (Colorado) r., Tex. 

 This region was controlled mainly by 

 Coahuiltecan tribes, but Karankawan and 

 Tonkawan Indians also njamed there. 

 The name seems to have been given to 

 Joutel ])y Ebahamo Indians, who were 

 probably of Karankawan affinity. The 

 Kuasse may possibly be identical with the 

 Acafes and the Cacafes of Spanish writers 

 and the Akasquy of Cavelier's narrative.

Kuato {iCuato, 'pulling up from the 

 ground, or a hole'). An extinct tribal 

 division of the Kiowa, speaking a slightly 

 different dialect, who were exterminated 



by the Sioux in battle about the year 1780. 

 On this occasion, according to tradition, 

 the Kiowa were attacked by an over- 

 whelming force of Sioux and prepared to 

 retreat, but the chief of the Kuato ex- 

 horted his people not to run, "because, 

 if they did, their relatives in the other 

 world would not receive them." So they 

 stood their ground and were killed, while 

 the others of the tribe escaped. Their 

 place in the tribal camp circle is not 

 known. — Mooney in 14th Rep. B. A. E., 

 1080, 1896. 



Kuaua. A former Tigua pueblo, the 

 ruins of which lie n. of the In-idge across 

 the Rio Grande above Bernalillo, N. Mex. 

 According to Bandelier the main build- 

 ing, which is of adobe, is one of the larg- 

 est pueblo houses in New Mexico, but 

 whether or not the pueblo is historic is 

 indeterminable. It is also known by the 

 Spanish name Torreon, Init should not 

 be confounded with the Torreon e. of the 

 Rio Grande, in lat. 34° 45^.

 of the East mesa of Tusayan, n. e. Arizona,
