(1) Eng. Rincon. (<Span.). =Sp;in. (2). 



(2) Span. Rincon 'the corner'. =Eng. (1). 

 This is a mountain about 10 miles northwest of Pecos Pueblo 

 ruin [29:33] and due east of Santa Fe. 



The Rincon, upon whose peak the cross [of the Penitentes] is set, is only a 

 half day's ride from the Valley Ranch [29:unlocated], and the trip is worth 

 making for the view, as well as to get an idea of the terrible climb it must be 

 for the suffering and laden Penitentes, who choose always the steepest, roughest 

 way.' 



(1) Eng. Rio Chiquito settlement. (<Span.). =Span. (2). 

 (2) Span. Rio Chiquito 'little river', see [22:22]. 

 This is a small Mexican town on the Rio Chiquito near Chimayo 

 [22:1S]. Some Chimaj'o blankets are woven there, it is said. Cf. 

 [22:22]. 



Span. "Sierra de Santa Barbara"^ 'the mountains of Saint Barbara', 

 the name referring perhaps to the part of the Santa Fe Mountains 

 near Santa Barbara settlement [8:99]. 



?Santuario ^lountains. Bandelier mentions "the Santuario".^ Hew- 

 ett, perhaps following Bandelier, uses the expression "Sur le 

 Santuario."^ Whether there are mountains by this name has not 

 been learned; Hewett understands that there are. No map known 

 to the writer shows any place named Santuario other than Santu- 

 ario settlement [22:20]. 



Sayapiyf of obscure etymology {aa apparently the same as sa of 

 nq.saty, 'it makes a rushing sound', said of water <w<i 'it', sa 'to 

 make a rushing sound', tii 'to say'; pa apparently 'to crack' 

 'state of being cracked' 'cracked'; piyj' 'mountain'). The verb 

 pa is used of unfolding leaves, but the word can not be explained 

 as referring to unfolding tobacco leaves because sa 'tobacco' has 

 a different intonation. Nor can it mean 'cracked excrement' for 

 sa 'excrement' has still a different intonation. 



The mountain is somewhere near the pass [22:23], to which it 

 appears to give the name. The mountain is well known to the 

 Tewa and is said to be one of the highest of the range. One of 

 the boys of San Ildefonso Pueblo is named Sapapijjf. 



Nambe S(iywsei)'y,l:waje 'height of the sandstone and the rabbitbrush' 

 {sdywse ' sandstone ' ; ^'^ ' rabbitbrush ' 'Chrysothamnus bigelovii ' ; 

 kwuje ' height'). 



This mountain is between - Agatf s^nupijj / [22:54] and 

 PaqwiRmpvij f [22:57].
