  of 
  game." 
  This 
  is 
  an 
  enlarged 
  idea, 
  great 
  swamp 
  being 
  the 
  actual 
  

   definition. 
  

  

  Ka-ne-en'-da, 
  at 
  the 
  inlet 
  of 
  Onondaga 
  lake, 
  was 
  frequently 
  men- 
  

   tioned 
  about 
  the 
  year 
  1700, 
  as 
  a 
  port 
  for 
  Onondaga, 
  then 
  some 
  miles 
  

   away 
  on 
  Butternut 
  creek. 
  It 
  was 
  the 
  English 
  form 
  of 
  Ganentaa, 
  

   and 
  was 
  sometimes 
  applied 
  to 
  the 
  lake. 
  Colonel 
  Romer 
  wrote 
  it 
  

   Canainda. 
  

  

  Ka-no-a-lo-ka 
  is 
  the 
  name 
  for 
  Oneida 
  lake 
  on 
  Thurber's 
  map, 
  

   meaning 
  head 
  on 
  a 
  pole, 
  and 
  derived 
  from 
  the 
  name 
  of 
  Oneida 
  

   Castle. 
  

  

  Ka-no-wa'-ya, 
  skull 
  on 
  a 
  shelf, 
  is 
  Morgan's 
  name 
  for 
  Elbridge, 
  

   but 
  it 
  scarcely 
  differs 
  from 
  his 
  name 
  for 
  Cicero 
  swamp, 
  and 
  I 
  

   strongly 
  suspect 
  it 
  should 
  apply 
  to 
  the 
  many 
  swamps 
  in 
  the 
  north 
  

   part 
  of 
  the 
  town. 
  

  

  Ken-tue-ho'-ne, 
  a 
  river 
  which 
  has 
  been 
  made, 
  is 
  Cusick's 
  name 
  

   for 
  Syracuse, 
  differing 
  somewhat 
  from 
  that 
  of 
  Clark. 
  The 
  Onon- 
  

   dagas 
  call 
  the 
  city 
  Sy-kuse. 
  

  

  Ke-quan-de-ra'-ge 
  was 
  said 
  to 
  be 
  the 
  only 
  rapid 
  on 
  the 
  Oneida 
  

   river 
  in 
  1792, 
  which 
  is 
  not 
  literally 
  true, 
  but 
  it 
  is 
  now 
  Gaughdenoy. 
  

   A. 
  Cusick 
  defined 
  this 
  as 
  the 
  red 
  place. 
  

  

  Ki-ech-i-o-i-ah-te 
  was 
  Butternut 
  creek 
  on 
  Romer's 
  map. 
  

  

  Kot-cha-ka-too, 
  lake 
  surrounded 
  by 
  salt 
  springs, 
  is 
  Clark's 
  name 
  

   for 
  Onondaga 
  lake, 
  but 
  lake 
  is 
  not 
  implied. 
  A. 
  Cusick 
  applied 
  

   Ka-chik-ha'-too, 
  place 
  of 
  salt, 
  to 
  the 
  salt 
  springs 
  and 
  works. 
  

   Morgan 
  has 
  also 
  the 
  name 
  of 
  Te-ga-jik-ha'-do, 
  place 
  of 
  salt, 
  for 
  

   Salina. 
  It 
  will 
  be 
  observed 
  that 
  in 
  many 
  words 
  the 
  initial 
  syllable 
  

   is 
  dropped 
  in 
  common 
  use. 
  As 
  the 
  Indians 
  used 
  no 
  salt 
  in 
  early 
  

   days 
  their 
  name 
  for 
  it 
  meant 
  something 
  sour 
  or 
  disagreeable. 
  

  

  Ku-na'-tah, 
  where 
  the 
  hemlocks 
  grow*, 
  is 
  a 
  local 
  name 
  on 
  the 
  

   Onondaga 
  Reservation, 
  near 
  A. 
  Cusick's. 
  

  

  Kun-da'-qua, 
  the 
  creek, 
  for 
  Onondaga 
  creek, 
  is 
  contracted 
  from 
  

   a 
  name 
  already 
  given. 
  Mr 
  Clark 
  had 
  this 
  from 
  a 
  map 
  made 
  by 
  Mr 
  

   Thurber 
  of 
  Utica, 
  which 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  library 
  of 
  the 
  New 
  York 
  His- 
  

   torical 
  Society. 
  

  

  Ku-ste'-ha, 
  to 
  the 
  stony 
  place, 
  is 
  another 
  place 
  on 
  the 
  reservation. 
  

  

  Nan-ta-sa'-sis, 
  going 
  partly 
  round 
  a 
  hill, 
  is 
  Morgan's 
  name 
  for 
  a 
  

   village 
  on 
  the 
  west 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  valley, 
  3 
  miles 
  south 
  of 
  the 
  present 
  

   Onondaga 
  Castle. 
  The 
  location 
  is 
  clearly 
  erroneous.
