After much questioning at San Juan it seems clear that these 

 names refer to one stream, the name Coyote Creek coming per- 

 haps from Coj^ote settlement, which is situated on the creek. "The 

 branches of which the Chama is formed are the Coyote in the 

 west, the Gallinas north of west, and the Nutrias north. It is said 

 that the waters of the first are red, those of the Gallinas white, 

 and those of the Nutrias limpid. According as one or the other of 

 these tributaries rises, the waters of the Chama assume a difi'er- 

 enthue."! Cf. [1:30] and [29:120].

^(« 'dryness' 'dry'; /m;'« 'large groove' 'arroyo'). =Eng. (.3), 

 Span. (5). This name is applied especially to the lower part of 

 the stream, as far up as the white mineral depositor farther, this 

 portion of the bed being usually di-y. This is perhaps a transla- 

 tion of Span. Arroyo Seco.
