ement of too uncertain character to be depended upon; the Athapascan tribes now on the Grande Ronde and Siletz Reservations, Oregon,[12] whose villages on and near the coast extended from Coquille River southward to the California line, including, among others, the Upper Coquille, Sixes, Euchre, Creek, Joshua, Tutu t[^u]nn[ve], and other "Rogue River" or "Tou-touten bands," Chasta Costa, Galice Creek, Naltunne t[^u]nn[ve] and Chetco villages;[13] the Athapascan villages formerly on Smith River and tributaries, California;[14] those villages extending southward from Smith River along the California coast to the mouth of Klamath River;[15] the Hup[^a] villages or "clans" formerly on Lower Trinity River, California;[16] the Kenesti or Wailakki (2), located as follows: "They live along the western slope of the Shasta Mountains, from North Eel River, above Round Valley, to Hay Fork; along Eel and Mad Rivers, extending down the latter about to Low Gap; also on Dobbins and Larrabie Creeks;"[17] and Saiaz, who "formerly occupied the tongue of land jutting down between Eel River and Van Dusen's Fork."[18] [Footnote 10: Gibbs in Pac. R. R. Rep. I, 1855, p. 428.] [Footnote 11: Lewis and Clarke, Exp., 1814, vol. 2, p. 382.] [Footnote 12: Gatschet and Dorsey, MS., 1883-'84.] [Footnote 13: Dorsey, MS., map, 1884, B.E.] [Footnote 14: Hamilton, MS., Haynarger Vocab., B.E.; Powers, Contr. N.A. Ethn., 1877, vol. 3, p. 65.] [Footnote 15: Dorsey, MS., map, 1884, B.E.] [Footnote 16: Powers, Contr. N.A. Ethn., 1877, vol. 3, pp. 72, 73.] [Footnote 17: Powers, Contr. N.A. Ethn., 1877, vol. 3, p. 114.] [Footnote 18: Powers, Contr. N.A. Ethn., 1877, vol. 3, p. 122.] _Southern group_.--Includes the Navajo, Apache, and Lipan. Engineer Jose Cortez, one of the earliest authorities on these tribes, writing in 1799, defines the boundaries of the Lipan and Apache as extending north and south from 29 deg. N. to 36 deg. N., and east and west from 99 deg. W. to 114 deg. W.; in other words from central Texas nearly to the Colorado River in Arizona, where they met tribes of the Yuman stock. The Lipan occupied the eastern part of the above territory, extending in Texas from the Comanche country (about Red River) south to the Rio Grande.[19] More recently both Lipan and Apache have gradually moved southward into Mexico where they extend as far as Durango.[20] [Footnote 19: Cortez in Pac. R. R.
