136 ETHNOGEOGRAPIIY OF THE TEWA INDIANS [kth. ANN. 29 



agreeing with Tio 'legging', often clipped to so' or .so in various 

 forms referring to the Hopi; "'qywi 'pueblo'; &w'M'town'). A 

 peculiar feature of this name is that when 'i'' or \yf locative and 

 adjective-forming postfix, is inserted, it becomes vyf^ or wvjf, 

 thus K''oso''qr)w\7nhxi!u instead of K'oso''Qi]f''imhu''u which one 

 would expect. =Tewa(4). "Jo-so-ge."' This seems to rest on 

 some ungrammatical Tewa form. The writer has spent much 

 time inquiring about this form. All the informants agree that 

 although a Tewa might say Fosoge or K'ot<o''oyfje and these forms 

 would be understood, they are not correct Tewa, for ge 'down at' 

 'over at' added to the name of a people means nothing. There are 

 no such forms as Tcivage, JPapoge, Potjicodege, etc. It has been 

 ascertained from San Juan, Santa Clara, San Ildefonso, and Nambe 

 Indians that JCosoge is an incorrect form, which does not sound 

 right to Tewa ears. See Tewa (4) and the general discussion of 

 Abiquiu below. 



(4) MokVoywi, Mokibu'u 'Hopi (Moki) Pueblo' 'Hopi (Moki) 

 town' (MoH 'Moki' 'Hopi' <Span. Moqui. see Hopi (Names of 

 Tribes AND Peoples); ^qijipi 'pueblo'; bau 'town'). = Tewa (3). 

 "Muke". - For the reason why the names K'oso'oj)/- ard 2Lok\- 

 are applied to Abiquiu, see the general discussion of Abiquiu, 

 below. The name MokX is applied very seldom or not at all and 

 is therefore omitted from the items on place-names about Abiquiu 

 in which the name of [3:86] appears prepounded. 



(5) Cochiti \h'eljiUs36 i^Aveljd <Span. (7); tsx locative). 

 = Tewa (1), Tewa (2), Eng. (6), Span. (7). 



(6) Eng. Abiquiu. (<Span.). = Tewa (1), Tewa (2), Cochiti 

 (5), Span. (7). 



(7) Span. Abiquiu, Santo Tomas de Abiquiii. (<Tewa (1), 

 above). = Tewa (1), Tewa (2), Cochiti (.5), Eng. (0). "Abiquiu".' 

 This is the established Span, spelling of the name. Initial jp' in 

 the San .luun dialect approaches bilabial/' and would easily be 

 heard by Span, speakers as a medial Span. 5. The Tewa -/- be- 

 came Span, -qui-; the soimd of Tewa / might easily be thought 

 by a Spanish speaker to resemble that of -qui- (kl or Ic'). An a 

 was added to the Span, form before the medial fe. 



The Tewa have clearly explained this multiplicity of names 

 as follows: The original Abiquiu was the pueblo ruin [3:38]. 

 The original name of this was P^efu-. See Tewa (1), above. 

 When the Mexicans came to the country they mispronounced 

 P^efii-, calling it Abiquiu. At present only the San Juan 

 Indians preserve the old name P'efu- in their speech, tiie other 

 Tewa calling the place by the Span, name usually mispronounced so
