478 ETHNOGEOGEAPHY OF THE TEWA INDIANS' [eth. ANN. 29 



Avlikli, ii8 stated, occurred in 1838, or, according to the aged 

 informant, tlic year after the murder of Governor Perez. 



Tlie last surviving Pecos born at Pecos Pueblo is Agustin 

 Pecos, ('ailed in Pecos and Jemez 0ii'ijd 'fl}'', who lives at Jemez. 

 lie is very old and deaf. There are several other persons at 

 Jemez who are full or part Pecos in blood and who have some 

 knowledge of the Pecos language. 



The Pecos had much contact with the Comanche. Many of 

 them spoke Comanche as well as their own tongue, and there was 

 much Comanche blood in the tribe. 



The difference in language testifies that the Jemez and Pecos 

 had been separated for several centuries before the coming of the 

 Europeans. Notice that the following migration traditions do 

 not state that the Jemez and Pecos were formerly one people: 

 "The Pecos declare that they came into their valley from the 

 southeast, but that they originated in the north and shifted across 

 the Rio Grande. The Jemez say that their origia was in the 

 northeast, whence they slowly drifted into the Jemez Valley."^ 



Several pueblo ruins in the vicinity of Pecos are claimed to 

 have been the villages of Pecos-speaking Indians.- "Probably 

 more than one village was inhabited by the Pecos three hundred 

 years ago."^ Pecos gives the name to several places or features: 

 Pecos River [29:32], Pecos National Forest [22:introduction], 

 Pecos Baldy [22: unlocated], and Pecos settlement [29:unlocated].
