equally distant. This southern rival of Thu n ^yo is called Suma, a very old name the meaning of which has become forgotten. It is because of its situation between Thu n ^yo and Suma that the Navajo have dubbed San Ildefonso picturesquely Tse Tu Kinne, houses between the rocks. 1
CALLAMONGUE [2 1 124]
Callamongue is a Mexican hamlet on the east bank of Tesuque creek between Pojoaque and Tesuque. The old Tewa village ruin of K'uyemuge, from which the hamlet takes its name, lies half a mile west, across the creek. The ruin is on a mesa top and its name, which means 'where they hurled down stones' (k'u, stone; yemu, to throw pi.; ge, loc.), gives a glimpse of some defense in the long forgotten past.
CANGILON CREEK [i 131]
This eastern tributary of the Chama has a Tewa name equivalent in meaning to the Spanish: pae n se n ?7hu'u, deer horn creek (pae n , deer; se n T7, horn; hu'u, arroyo). In this and numerous similar instances, in which Indian and Spanish names are exact equivalents in meaning we have no means of determining whether the name was started by Spanish or Indian speakers.
CANOA MESA [13:1]
San Juan also has its great black basalt mesa, larger and higher than Thu n r?yo, though less imposing. This great block of basalt lies on the west side -of the Rio Grande, north of the confluence with the Chama, and has its lower end opposite San Juan pueblo. To Mexican fancy it is shaped like a gigantic canoe and is known as the Mesa de la Canoa. The Tewa have for it however a very matter-of-fact name as compared with the old and mystical names Thu n 77yo and Suma, namely: Tsi n kwaye, basalt mesa (tsi n , basalt; kwaye, height).
CAPULIN (p. 116)
Capulin, meaning in Spanish 'chokecherry,' has its Tewa coun- terpart: 'Ave'iwe, chokecherry place ('ave, chokecherry; 'iwe, loc.). Here again, we cannot determine which was the original.
