TAOS PUEBLO— Vocabulary No. 34. 



Taos is located in closer proximity to the homes of the Uta, Apache, and Navajo 

 Indians than any other pueblo of New Mexico ; hence the tribe became extensively 

 intermarried with the above Indians. But this circumstance does not seem to have 

 influenced their language to any extent, if we can judge from the vocabulary submitted. 

 It was obtained from a Mexican adopted into the Taos tribe from his childhood, and 

 married to an Indian woman. A few additions are as follows : 



Man seh-ah-nan-na, sh6y-en-em. 



People 1-e-re, sow-ah-ve-hu. 



Large town, city pah-ho me-neh. 



Sun; lit., "toe father of tah-tah. 

 the sky." 



Moon; lit.," the mother of kah-nah. 

 the sky." 



Thunder tah-w6h-uf, tay-ah-mah-a-wah. 



Hawk, or eagle chu-e-unah. 



Morning call of the Sirviente of Taos. 



The following metric lines, sung every morning by the town-crier of Taos Pueblo for gathering the 

 Indians to their daily labor, was communicated by the alcalde of the village to Mr. Alfred R. Conkling, 

 of New York City, one of the geologists of the Expedition. The town-crier goes out every morning 

 at seven o'clock to chant this strain of words, repeating it frequently, and another song is sung by him 

 in the evening to close the day's work. For this service he receives the liberal allowance of three dol- 

 lars a month. 



I wrote down the Indian text to the best of my ability and added the Spanish translation given 

 by the alcalde, presuming that it will render the original more faithfully than any English translation 

 of a text not yet fully understood.

JEMEZ PUEBLO— Vocabulary No. 35. 



About twenty years ago the Indian population of Jemez was increased by that of 

 Pecos, who rejoined their congeners after leaving their old homes on Pecos River, now 

 in ruins. The language of both tribes belongs to the same family, and some of the 

 existing differences have been recorded by the collector.
