HARRINGTON] PLACE-NAMES 525 



chapel which existed at Puaray until 16S1. . . . That it was really Puaray 

 was asserted by Indians of Sandia, and it also follo^vs from the location of the 

 so-called Gonzalez grant.' 



That Puaraj' was on the west sido^ of the Rio Grande is apparent 

 onljr from Bandelier's statement: - 



On the brink of that mesa [mesa on west side of Eio Grande opposite Bernalillo 

 [29:9t)]] stand four ruins [[29:97] counted as two by Bandelier, but described 

 as one [29:98], and [29:99]], directly opposite the latter town [29:96]. 



According to Bandelier^ Puaray was abandoned in 1681 and never 

 reoccupied. For identification of Puaray with Tiguex see also 

 Tiwa (3), above.

 be a locative postfix, meaning 'down at', 'at', said of objects

 when the name of Sandia is prepounded to other nouns. =Taos
