(3) Southern Tiwa (Sandia-Isleta language) "Tiguex', etc.; see 

 Tiwa (Names of Tribes and Peoples). Hodge" says: "The iden- 

 tification of Puara^' with the Tiguex village of theTiguex province 

 of the chroniclers of Coronado's expedition is determined by state- 

 ments made bv the Indians to Espejo in 1583, and by the discovery 

 there by Onate, in 15y8, of a partially effaced painting represent- 

 ing the murder of the missionaries". There is no reason in the 

 judgment of the present writer why Bandelier's and Hodge's 

 identilication of Puaray with "Tiguex" should not be accepted, 

 and he regards Dellenbaugh's attempt'" to locate Tiguex farther 

 south as unsuccessful. 



(•i) Span. " Sant Antonio de Padua"." This was the first saint- 

 name applied, meaning 'Saint Anthony of Padua'. 



(5) Span. San Bartolome.'- This was the mission name; it means 

 'Saint Bartholomew'. 



(0) Span. "Santiago";'^ this means 'Saint James'. 



This village is also called 'Pueblo de Santiago', although the patron saint of 

 Puaray was St. Bartholomew. From what this modern ajipellation was derived 

 I cannot surmise. That it was really Puaray was asserted by Indians of Sandia, 

 and it also follows from the location of the so-called Gonzalez grant. '^ 



This pueblo was identified as Puaray by Bandelier, who describes 

 it and discusses its history.'^ He sa^^s in part: 



In front of the southern portion of the town of Bernalillo [29:96], in a situ-^ 

 ation very similar to that of Kuaua [29:97], on a gravelly bluff overlooking 

 the river, from which a magnificent view is enjoyed of the formidable Sierra 

 de Sandia [29:83], stand the remains of the historic pueblo of Puar-ay, or Vil- 

 lage of the Worm or Insect [<Vetancurt]. . . . For its ground plan I refer 

 to figure 2-1 of plate i [of Final Report, pt. ii, 1S92]. It was smaller than Kuaua 

 [29:97], and I doubt whether its population ever exceeded five hundred souls. '^ 

 Nothing but foundations and mounds remain, but recent excavations have 

 revealed fairly well preserved rooms beneath the rubbish. The manufactured 

 oVjjecta are like those at Kuaua [29:97], and the main buildings were built of 

 adobe. Two smaller constructions, lying east and south of the first, ajipear to 

 have been built of blocks of lava or trap. The one east may have been the
