HARRixr.TON] PLACE-STAMES 533' 



(le Solis Miranda says (MS.): 'Por no pasar de cinco hombres Espaiioles los 

 que hay en cada frontera, y ser solo diez los que han quedado en la cabecera, 

 Villa de Santa F6, estando muchos de los Espauoles sin armas algunas, y casi 

 todos sin caballos por haberselos llevado el enemigo.'] The exact date of their 

 evacuation is unknown to me; but it certainly took place previous to 1676 and 

 after 1669. [[Footnote.-I That it was prior to 1676 is proved by the Parecer del 

 Fiscal: ' Que A demas destruido totalmente poblaciones pasaron A poner fuego 

 :l las yglesias, Uevandose los vasos sagrados,' etc. After mentioning these 

 depredations, he refers to the destruction of the village of Hauicu, near Zuni, in 

 1672, and of Senecii, in 1675. Escalante, Carta nl Padre Morfi, 1778, par. 2: 

 'Destruyeron los enemigos Apaches con casi continuas invasiones siete pueblos 

 de los cuarenta y seis dichos, uno en la provincia de Zuni, que fu6 Jahuicu, y 

 siete en el valle de las Salinas [29:110], que fu^ron Chilili, Tan que y Cuarac 

 de Indios Tihuas, Abo, Jumancas y Tabira de Tompiros. ' That it occurred pre- 

 vious to 1669 is established by a letter to Fray Nicolas de Freytas, contiiined 

 in the Dilixencias sobre la soliziiud del cuerpo del venerable Pe Frai/ Gerdnimo de 

 la Liana, dated October 26, 1706 (MS.), from which it appears that in 1669 

 Father Freytas officially visited the pueblos at the Salines.] The inhabitants 

 retired mostly to the Rio Grande Tiguas [Tiwa]; but some joined the Mansos 

 at El Paso del Norte.' 



See [29:12J:] and Chilili Arroyo [29:unlocatecl].

 "Taxique".*"Taiiqae".^ "Tagique"." "Tegique".' "Tageque".* 

 "Ta-ji-que'".'' "Tajique".'" "Junetre"." 



This is believed by Bandelier to be probably the same; see quo- 

 tation.s below. If so, it would be a Tiwa name. 



(3) "Cu-za-ya".'- This is believed by Bandelier to be intended 

 possibly for Tajique. 



(i) Eng. Tajique. (<Span.). =Isleta(l), Tiwa (2), Span. (5). 



(5) Span. Tajique. (<Tiwa). =Isleta (1), Tiwa (2), Eng. (4). 



(6) Span. San Miguel ' Saint Michael'. "San Miguel Tajique".'^ 

 The next ruin [after [29:105]] on the eastern slojie of the Manzano range 



[29:104] is the \illage of Tajique, about fifteen miles south of Chilili 

 [29:105]. The road goes mostly through woods, with the dismal basin of the 

 Salines [29:110] in view to the east. I have diligently inquired for ruins both 

 righ't and left of this route, but have invariabl.y received the answer that only 

 a few small mounds or knolls, indicating the former presence of 'small houses,' 

 have been met with, and that there are no traces of regular pueblos. 



The situation of Tajique is similar to that of Chilili [29:105], — a small valley 

 open to the east and rising in the west. The ruins of the former pueblo
