7.] [Footnote 32: This account was copied from a copy made by the eminent scholar, A. F. Bandelier, for the archives of the Hemenway Expedition, now at the Peabody Museum, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.] [Footnote 33: Hano or "Tewa."] [Footnote 34: Sichomovi. In the manuscript report by Don Jose Cortez, who wrote of the northern provinces of Mexico, where he lived in 1799, Sichomovi is mentioned as a nameless village between Tanos (Hano) and Gualpi (Walpi), settled by colonists from the latter pueblo. One of the first references to this village by name was in a report by Indian Agent Calhoun (1850), where it is called Chemovi.] [Footnote 35: Mishoninovi.] [Footnote 36: Shipaulovi.] [Footnote 37: Shunopovi.] [Footnote 38: In 1896 I collected over a hundred beautiful specimens from this cemetery.] [Footnote 39: There lived in Walpi, years ago, an old woman, who related to a priest, who repeated the story to the writer, that when a little girl she remembered seeing the Payuepki people pass along the valley under Walpi when they returned to the Rio Grande. Her story is quite probable, for the lives of two aged persons could readily bridge the interval between that event and our own time.] [Footnote 40: "La Mission de N. Sra. de las Dolores de Zandia de Indios Teguas a Moqui."] [Footnote 41: See J. F. Meline, Two Thousand Miles on Horseback, 1867. Sandia, according to Bancroft, is not mentioned by Menchero in 1744, but Bonilla gave it a population of 400 Indians in 1749. In 1742 two friars visited Tusayan, and, it is said, brought out 441 apostate Tiguas, who were later settled in the old pueblo of Sandia. Considering, then, that Sandia was resettled in 1748, six years after this visit, and that the numbers so closely coincide, we have good evidence that Payuepki, in Tusayan, was abandoned about 1742. It is probable, from known evidence, that this pueblo was built somewhere between 1680 and 1690; so that the whole period of its occupancy was not far from fifty years.] [Footnote 42: Mindeleff mentions two other sites of Old Walpi--a mound near _Wala_, and one in the plain between Mishoninovi and Walpi; but neither of these is large, although claimed as former sites of the early clans which later built the town on the terrace of East Mesa below Walpi. I have regarded Kuechaptuevela as the ancient Walpi, but have no doubt that the Hopi emigrants had several temporary dwellings before they settled there.]
