552 ETHNOGEOGEAPHY OF THE TEWA INDIANS [eth. anx. 120 



segunda Entnula, MS.), mentions repeatedly Queres Indians from San Marcos. 

 It may be that there were both Queres and Tanos in the pueblo, but I consider 

 the villajie to have been a Tanos village, just as to-day Santo Domingo is counted 

 among the Queres [Keresan] , although there are many Tanos among them, and 

 Lsleta among the Tiguas [Tiwa], although a good j>ortion are Queres [Kere- 

 san.s] from Laguna.] The name San Marcos appears to have lieen given to it 

 in 1591 by Gaspar Castano de Sosa. [[Footnote:] Memoria del DisL-uhrim'w.nto que 

 Ga^jMxr Castano de Sosa, hizo en el Nucvo Mexico, Doc. de Indias, vol. xv, p. 248.] 

 It was abandoned by its inhabitants during the siege of Santa Fe, in August, 

 1680; llFootnote :} Diario de la Retlrada de Olermin, fol. 28.] and in 1692, when 

 Diego de Vargas passed through it, it was in ruins, with only a few of the 

 walls still standing and a portion of the church edifices. [[Footnote:'] Autos de 

 Guerra de la negunda Entrada, fol. 138: 'Y halle despoblado y se consorvan 

 algunos aposentos y paredes de los quarteles y viuyendas de el y asimismo se 

 hallan las paredes y canon de la Yglcsia buenas con las de el conuto.'] Near 

 San Marcos lies the celebrated locality [29:6.5] of Callaite, called popularly the 

 'turquoise ndnes.' ' 



According to Meline- the inhabitants of San Marcos joined the 

 Tewii at San Jiian. Our Tevva informants; suppose tliat San 

 Marcos was aTano pueblo, but that means nothing since the Tewa 

 call all the Indians who lived southeast of the Tewa country 

 Tanos, no matter what language they spoke. These informants 

 had never heard of the San Marcos people removing to San Juan 

 Pueblo; the writer inquired about this point especially at San 

 Juan. So far as is known, no modern map of New Mexico shows 

 San Marcos Pueblo ruin, but "Ojo San Marcos" (possibly the 

 spring which supplied the pueblo with water) is given on one,^ 

 and a number of maps show the San Marcos Pueblo Grant at the 

 same location as the spring shown on the map cited, namely, 

 about 4 miles northeast of Cerrillos [29:53]. Cf. [29:55]. 



Span. "Caiiada Larga".* This means Mong canada\ 



" On the waterless plateau called El Cuervo [29:3], 'farther north, 

 [than [28:49]], I know of no ancient ve.stiges, and both the Canada 

 Ancha [29:unlocatedJ and Canada Larga, at the foot of that wide 

 and long mesa [29:3], I have been informed, are devoid of all 

 remains of former Indian habitations".* Th(> canada referred to 

 is apparently east of the Rio Grande in the vicinity of [29:3j. 

 See [29:3] and Canada Ancha [29:unlocated]. 



Mineral paint deposit in front of San Felipe Pueblo [29:69]. 

 "The Queres [Keresans] of San Felipe [29:(i;t] had in front of 

 their village large veins of mineral paint, valuable to the Indian 

 for his pottery".'^ In what direction from San Felipe Bandelier 

 means by "in front of" is not clear.
