Taxlipu. Given as a Chumashan vil- 

 lage formerly near Santa Barbara, Cal. 

 (Bancroft, Nat. Races, i, 459, 1874).

 at the s. extremity of Tulare valley, in 

 Chumash territory. (a. l. k.) 



Tazaaigadika ( ' salmon eaters ' ) . A Sho- 

 shoni division formerly occupying the 

 country about Salmon falls on Snake r., 

 s. Idaho. Their dependence on the sal- 

 mon which abounded here gave them 

 their name of "Salmon Eaters."

Taztasagonies. A tribe referred to in 1730 

 as living northward from San Antonio, 

 Texas, and as being hostile to the tribes 

 of the San Antonio region (Pedro de 

 Rivera, doc. in Arch. Col. Santa Cruz de 

 Queretaro, K, leg. 5, no. 6). About this 

 time the governor of Texas, Mediavilla y 

 Ascona, asked permission to make war 

 on the "Apache, Yita [Yuta, Ute] and 

 Tastasagonia " (ibid., K, leg. 6, no. 15). 

 The tribe is therefore probably one other- 

 wise known under the name of Apache 

 or Comanche. (h. e. b. )

 doned. See Cora.
