HARRINGTON] PLACE-NAMES 345 



names: . . . Ke-gua-yo, in the vicinity of the Chupaderos [probably 

 [22:51]], a cluster of springs about four miles east of Nanib^ in a narrow- 

 mountain gorge.' 



Hewett says: 



Plus loin, ce sont les mines de Keguaya, a. quelques milles t\ I'est de 

 Nambe ... on suppose que ce sont celles des villages historiques des Nambe.^ 



All that could be learned is that this is a very ancient village of 

 the Nambe people. 

 [22:il] Nambe ^ Ag.a.wo)iu\ijwikej i, of obscure etymoloo;}-, perhaps 

 ' pueblo ruin where the cowrie or olivella shells are or were hang- 

 ing- down' {^ag.a unexplained, but occurring in several Tewa place- 

 names, e. g. ^Agatfanupiyj' [22:54], possibly an old form of 'vg.a 

 ' cowrie shell', 'olivella shell', it is said; wo 'to hang'; nu loca- 

 tive; 'oywil-fjl 'pueblo ruin ' < 'oyir^ 'pueblo', keji 'old' post- 

 pound). Since the etymology above was given by a verj' reliable 

 informant, an aged cacique, considerable weight is to be attached 

 to it. "A-ga Uo-no".' "Agauono". This is given ^ both as 

 the name of the pueblo ruin and, by mistake, as the name of 

 Juan B. Gonzalez^ of San Jldefonso, whose Indian name is 

 ''Ag.ojo'q^nfsg ' shaking star ' {'ag.ojo 'star'; q^nfx 'shaking'), not 

 ^AQfiwonu. 



Bandelier has already been quoted with regard to this pueblo 

 ruin (see under [22:40]). He speaks further of — 



A-ga Uo-no and Ka-;l-yu [22:42], both in the vicinity of the Santnario in 

 the mountains.' 



The location of " the Santuario" has not been ascertained. 

 [22:20] is the Mexican settlement called Santuario. Hewett 

 writes as follows: 



Plus loin, ce sont les ruines de Keguaya [22:40], a quelques milles a I'est 

 de Nambe et de Tobipange [25:30], a 8 milles au nord-est; on suppose que ce 

 sont cellea des villages historiques des Nambe. Les ruines d'Agauono et de 

 Kaayu [22:42] sur le Santuario [see above], a quelques milles plus loin au 

 nord-est, indiquent probablement I'ancienne residence de certains clans des 

 Nambe.' 



^Agawomo is said to have been a very ancient pueljlo of the 

 Nambe people. 

 [22:42] Nambe ^'(^'^wi'oT^wjl'e/i' pueblo ruin of an unidentified species 

 of bird called k'q'sewi' (k'^'sewl'l an unidentified species of bird 

 of bluish color which cries hiha; 'otjwil'eji 'pueblo ruin' <^oywi 

 'pueblo', kj^ji ' old' po.stpound.) For Bandelier's spelling of wPi 

 as "ye" or "yu", see [16:105] and [16:114].
