Unloc'ated 



San Iklefonso 'Abcbe'e 'little corner «f the chokecherry' (V/fe/- 'choke 

 cherr}'' Truuus melanocarpa"; bee 'small low roundish place'). 

 This dell is said to be somewhere in the vicinity of the upper 

 part of [17:29], to which it gives the name. 



Span. Itito del Eravo 'creek of the brave' 'creek of the non-Pueblo 

 Indian'. 'Bravo' is often used by Span, speaking people of New 

 Mexico to distinguish non-Pueblo from Pueblo Indians. But 

 it is possible that the name is not Rito del Bravo, but Rito Bravo, 

 'wild, turbulent river'; cf. Rio Bravo del Norte, an old Span, 

 name of the Rio Grande. See non-Pueblo Indian, page 575, and 

 Rio Grande [Large Features:3], pages. 100-102. This name was 

 not familiar to the Tewa informants. It is evidently the Span, 

 name of some canyon not far north of Frijoles Canyon [28:6]. 



Hewett' mentions this stream at least three times in his Antitj- 

 uities: "It [ruin No. 18] is not less than 800 feet above the waters 

 of Rito del Bravo, which it overlooks". "No. 19 . . . A small 

 pueblo ruin in the beautiful wooded park just south of the Rito 

 del Bravo and a mile north of Rito de los Frijoles".'' "This site 

 [of ruin No. 20] overlooks the deep gorge of the Bravo to the 

 north, and south a few rods is another deep canyon". 



San Ildefonso Kedawii 'gap where the bear is or was desired' {he 

 'bear' of any species; daa 'to wish' 'to want' 'to desire'; vrfi 

 'gap'). For the name cf. 'iiB.mha Pad((hu''i(\22:^]. The circum- 

 stances under which the name was originally given were not 

 known to the informants. 



San Ildefonso Wdo'ehuii. 'little crow corner" i^odo 'crow^'; 'e diminu- 

 tive; hiCu 'large low roundish place'). 



This corner is indefinitely located as somewhere not very far 

 north of Frijoles Canyon [28:6j. 



Span. Mesa Prieta 'dark mesa'. Bandelier^ writes: 



The formation of black trap, lava, and basalt crosses to the west side of the 

 Rio Grande a little below San Ildefonso, and extends from half a mile to a mile 

 west. Hexagonal columns of basalt crop out near the Mesa Prieta.
