total of 10 houses to the group, a reasonable figure (p. 206, see also pp. 251-252). 54. wahsek C P. 254. No question. 55. weitspus C P. 257. No question. 56. rlrgr C P. 258. "... always a small place" but several of its families were rich. On Kroeber's map. 57. pekwutul C P. 258. "... slightly larger than _rlrgr_" but had some wealthy citizens. On Kroeber's map. 58. loolego C P. 258. Shown on Kroeber's map as a standard town. Waterman says that 30 years before his visit, _i.e._, in 1879, 2 pits and a sweathouse were to be seen there. _loolego_ "... must at one time have been considerably larger for these people made up one of four parties who carried on the public spectacles in the deer skin ceremony at _weitspus_. They could not have done this had they not been rather numerous.... They were obviously influential people." This condition must have obtained long before 1879 when only house pits were known. The site was destroyed by mining in the 1880's. 59. aiqoo C P. 259. Waterman says: "... at least two houses and a sweathouse stood here." Kroeber (p. 10) considers _aiqoo_ as a subdivision of _otsepor_ but Merriam lists it as a separate village, under the name _Ikocho_. 60. otsepor C In 1909 when Waterman saw it the village had merely three house pits. But an informant "... well remembers when several families ... lived here. They had fine large houses." 61. espaw C P. 261. No question as to existence.
