 pueblo, presumably of the Piro, on the 

 w. rim of the Medano, or great sand-

 Chaco canyon, n. w. N. Mex. It is on the 

 N. side of the arroyo, on its very brink, 

 is rectangular in form, and faces eastward. 

 The western wall is about 270 ft long, and 

 the 2 wings 125 and 135 ft respectively. 

 The extremities of the wings are con- 

 nected by a semicircular double wall, 

 the space between being occupied by a 

 series of rooms. Portions of the third- 

 story wall are standing. The original 

 height was probably 4 stories. The 

 heavy floor timbers, averaging about 10 

 in. in thickness, are still in place. There 

 are 2 kivas in the court, 3 built within 

 the pueblo walls, and 4 outside the main 

 building. The largest is 37 ft in diame- 

 ter. The masonry is of dull brown sand- 

 stone, well laid in adobe mortar.

Pueblo del Encierro (Span.: 'village of 

 the inclosure') . A former pueblo, proba- 

 bly Keresan, described as being some dis- 

 tance above Tashkatze, which is opposite

Pueblo de los Jumanos. A former large 

 village of the Jumano (q. v.), situated 

 in the "Salinas" e. of the Rio Grande, 

 central New Mexico, in the vicinity of 

 Tabira, or the so-called Gran (^uivira. 

 The definite location of the pueblo is not 

 known, although it is supposed to have 

 been situated near the base of the eleva- 

 tion called Mesade los Jumanes. In 1598 

 the northern division of the Jumano oc- 

 cupied 4 villages in this region, but before 

 1629 they lived in tipis and were semi- 

 nomadic. In the latter year they were 



gathered in a "great pueblo" to which 

 the name San Isidoro was applied by the 

 Franciscan missionaries, and an attempt 

 maile at their conversion. The Pueblo 

 de los Jumanos was mentioned by 

 Escalante in 1778 — fully a century after 

 the abandonment of the Salinas by the 

 Tigua and the Piro. According to Esca- 

 lante the pueljlo was destroyed by the 

 Apache, who were the scourge of the 

 Pueblos during this period, (f. w. h.)

Pueblo de los Silos. A large Tano village 

 situated in the Galisteo Ijasin, between 

 the Keresan pueblos of the Rio Grande 

 and Pecos, N. Mex., in 1540; so called 

 by the Spaniards of Coronado's exi)edi- 

 tion because of the large underground 

 cellars found there stored with corn. The 

 village had the appearance of newness, 

 but because of depredations by the Teya, 

 a Plains tribe, 16 years before, only 35 

 houses were inhabited, the remainder 

 having been destroyed. See Castaileda 

 in 14th Rep. B. A. E., 453, 523, 570, 1896.

Pueblo Pintado (Span.: 'painted vil- 

 lage'). An important ancient pueblo 

 ruin, of yellowish gray sandstone, situ- 

 ated near the head of the Chaco wash, on 

 the low mesa to the s., in Chaco canyon, 

 N. w. N. Mex. It is the most easterly of 

 the Chaco Canyon group. Tlie building is 

 L-8hai)ed, the 2 wings measuring 238 ft 

 and 174 ft, exterior measure. The ex- 

 tremities of the wings are connected by 

 a row of small apartments. The inclosed 

 court was occupied by 2 kivas and other 

 semi subterranean structures, while just 

 outside the court is another large kiva. 

 The standing outer walls are still about 28 

 ft high; the original height was probably 

 about 40 ft. This ruin is surrounded by 

 about 10 ruins of minor pueblos, all within 

 a mile of the main building. The sur- 

 rounding region is an absolute desert.
