Yguases. An unidentified Texas tribe 

 with whom Cabeza de Vaca lived during 

 his stay in Texas in 1527-34. They dwelt 

 inland from the Guaycones and s. e. of 

 the Atayos. The buffalo herds reached 

 theircountry.butthe people used the skins 

 mainly for robes and moccasins. They are 

 spoken of as a well-formed, symmetrical 

 people, good archers, and great runners. 

 They hunted the deer by running the 

 animal down. Cabeza de Vaca speaks of 

 their using "bucklers" of buffalo hide. 

 Their houses were of mats placed upon 

 four hoops. When moving camp the 

 mats were rolled in a bundle and carried 

 on the back. The men perforated the lip 



and the nipple, and wore a reed thrust 

 through the openings. They planted 

 " nothing from which to profit" and sub- 

 sisted mainly on roots, frequently suffer- 

 ing long fasts. During these painful 

 periods they bade Cabeza de Vaca "not 

 to be sad, there would soon ))e prickly- 

 pears," although the season of this fruit 

 of the cactus might be months distant. 

 When the pears were ripe the people 

 feasted and danced an(l forgot their 

 former privations. They destroyed their 

 female infants to prevent them being taken 

 by their enemies and thus becoming the 

 means of increasing the latter's numbers. 

 They seem to have been more closely re- 

 lated by custom to tribes near the coast, 

 like the Karankawa, than to the agricul- 

 tural people toward the n. and w. So far 

 as known the tribe isextinct. (a. c. f. )
