the two of them visited by Bandelier, are also situated on the 

 south side. If Bandelier did not mention one nameless pueblo 

 ruin as having an estufa while at the other nameless ruin he did 

 not notice anv estufa, it might be assumed that the ruin which he 

 first refers to in the second paragraph c]uoted is the same as the 

 nameless ruin alluded to in the first, and that he calls it "second" 

 in contradistinction to Tze-nat-ay [29:29], as indeed the third 

 paragraph quoted seems to indicate. As it is, we infer that the 

 nameless ruin first referred to in the second paragraph quoted is 

 distinct from and west of the one first alluded to in the first para- 

 graph. See nameless pueblo ruin west of midway between 

 Bajada [29:26J and Cochiti [28:77], and, third nameless pueblo 

 ruin mentioned by Bandelier as between Bajada [29:2(i] and 

 Cochiti [28:77], page 556; also [28:82], [28:83], [28:SJr], [28:90], 

 [28:91]. 



Nameless pueblo ruin at Otto, New Mexico. Mr. Otto Goetz informs 

 the writer that there is a pueblo ruin a few hundred feet west of 

 the railroad track at Otto, about 7 miles north of Moriai'ity, 

 anothei- station on the New Mexican Central Railroad |29:13] 

 about half-way between Kennedy [29:43] and Estancia [29:107]. 

 The northern part of this ruin lies on a school section, while the 

 southern part is situated partly on the land of Mr. Otto (ioetz and 

 • partly on that of Mr. Jos^ Abecen Garcia, M'hirh adjoins that of 

 Mr. Goetz on the west. 



Nameless ruin at Lamy [29:38]. 



At the railroad station of Lamy [29:.SS], where the branch road to Santa Fe 

 [29:.5] turns off from the main line of the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa F6, I 

 noticed, in the summer of 1S82, little mounds covered with potsherds, which 

 recalled to me forcibly the ruins of the socalled 'small houses,' of which I 

 have treated more extensively in a former report to the Institute. [[Foolnole:] 

 Fifth Annual Report, p. 60: 'A second architectural type even more prevalent 

 is that of detached family dwellings, either isolated or in grouj^s forming vil- 

 lages '. Also, pages 61, 62. I first gave an account of this class of buildings in 

 the Bulletin of the Archseological Institute of America, 1883 (p. 28), and refer to 

 those publications for a description of them.] The fragments of pottery are 

 clearly distinguishable from such as are found in the Tanos [Tano] ruins. 



The mounds lie on the north side of the railroad track, and are fast disap- 

 pearing. It is useless to speculate upon their origin, but they certainly ante- 

 date the time when the sedentary Indians of this district adopted the large 

 house type of architecture. {[Footnote:'] Compare on this point my Report in 

 the Fifth Annual Rejiort, ]S,S4, p. 78; also. Bulletin, 1883, p. 31.] They cannot 

 have been mere summer dwellings of Pueblo Indians, for the pottery is differ- 

 ent from that found in other ruins; or, rather, a certain kind of pottery which 

 always accompanies the remains of Tanos villages is never found in connection 

 with the small houses. We cannot admit that the sedentary native had a par- 

 ticular earthenware for summer use and another for the cold season. [[Foot- 

 note:] Bulletin, p. 30 et. seq.] 



The fragments of earthenware found at Lamy I have described as follows: 

 It is harder and better, white, gray, or red, with simple but not badly exe-
