muaication Mr. Jeanpon locates the ruin as follows: "The ruin 

 is located between two creeks. The Caiiones Creek joins the 

 Polvadera just a short di.stance north of the ruin and the com- 

 panion mesas are situated in the crotch formed by this juncture. 

 Caiiones runs southwest from the junction, the Polvadei'a almost 

 due south . . . The ruin is in tiie PiedraLumbre grant." The 

 following remarks bv Bandelier^ have some bearing on this ruin: 

 "The ruins above Abiquiu. and on the three branches by which 

 the Chama is formed, I have not visited. Some of them have 

 been noticed in the publications of the U. S. Geographical Survey 

 and of the Bureau of Ethnology, to which I refer the student. "- 

 "While at the Rito [4:5], Don Pedro Jaramillo told me of a 

 pueblo \ying west of it [i. e., of the Chama River], and north- 

 northwest of Abiquiu".^ No information has been obtained as to 

 what tribe built or occupied this pueblo. The name is merely a 

 descriptive one and would be applied to any ruin near Pedernal 

 Mountain. Cf. [2:4], [2:.5], [2:6], [2:8], and [2:9]; see pi. 2, B. 



[2:8] Smaller mesa southeast of the mesa on which Tsipiijf'oywi 

 stands. The end of the arrow marks the situation of a peculiar 

 neck of land or causeway which connects this small mesa with the 

 large and high mesa southeast of it.^

 into Report upon United States Geographical Surveys West of the Hundredtli Jleridian (vol. vii, 

 Special Report by Prof. E. D. Cope, pp. 351 to 360 inclusive). It is also interesting to note that ruins 

 on the Chama were also noticed in 1776 by that remarkable monk, Fray Silvestre Velez de Escalante, 

 during his trip to the Moqui Indians by way of the San Juan country. See his J>iario of that jour- 

 ney, and the Carta al P. Morfl, April 2, 1778 (Par. 11).
