HARRINGTON] INDIAN NAMES AROUND SANTA FE, N. M. 359

When the people left Ts'se n wari they buried a large storage- jar Span, tinajon, filled with blue turquoise, red coral and other beautiful possessions somewhere near the pueblo. What the jar contains is very valuable; many have dug for it but no one has found it.

TURQUOISE MINES [29:55]

The famous Turquoise mines south of Santa Fe are called in Tewa K'un y ae n 'iwe, turquoise place (k'un y se n , turquoise ;-'iwe, loc.). Turquoise was dug there in pre-Columbian times by Tewa and Keres Indians.

ZUNI [Unmapped]

Tewa Sun y i- and Jem. Sanigi'i (gi'i, loc.) are perhaps from Ker. Sun y i. It is likely that Span. Zuni also is from the Keres.
