[35] Castañeda asserts that Marcos was sixty leagues from the towns when he received news of the death of Estevan, and that he did not go a step nearer. See _The Journey of Coronado_, by George Parker Winship, p. 8. Barnes & Co. edition. [36] See the narratives of Castañeda and Jaramillo in _The Journey of Coronado_, by George Parker Winship. Barnes & Co. edition. [37] For an account of the explorations of the Colorado, see _The Romance of the Colorado River_, by F. S. Dellenbaugh. Topographical description, Chapter III. [38] An indication that Corazones was farther north than the region of the pass of Mulatos, and therefore that Cabeza's route was also farther north than Bandelier believes. It would also indicate that Estevan led the way back over their old trail. [39] See Chapters IV. and V. [40] Cicuye is identified with the present ruins of Pecos near Santa Fé, but like most of the accepted identifications it is not correct. Cicuye was farther south. See also Bandelier on the _Ruins of the Pueblo of Pecos_, papers of the Archæological Institute of America, American Series I. [41] Some years ago, in a _Bulletin of the American Geographical Society_ (1897), I published my views on this subject. Since then I have succeeded in making the matter somewhat clearer, especially as to the site of Tiguex, and gave my ideas before the meeting of the International Congress of Americanists, 13th Session, New York, 1902. Simpson, before me, located Tiguex below the mouth of the Puerco, and it can be nowhere else. [42] Also given "Ruiz" and "Ruyz." [43] The site assigned for Tiguex by Bandelier is at Bernalillo, but I consider it an impossible location. [44] Benavides, in his residence in the country, went over the same route as Espejo, and his itinerary tallies with Espejo's from Tiguex to Acoma. Thus Tiguex falls below the Puerco by evidence separated by more than forty years. [45] It has been stated by some historians that Santa Fé was founded in 1582, but it is a mistake.
