The Colorado River was first called _Rio del Tizon_, "River of the Brand," by the Spaniards, on account of the local custom of carrying fire in rolls of cedar bark. Coronado's men were the first to discover the Grand Canyon. _Pueblo_, the Spanish word for "town," is applied to all Indians living in the terraced houses of the southwest. The Zunis, Hopis, and Queres are the principal pueblo tribes. You will find _Tiguex_ on the map, somewhere between the Ty-uonyi and the place where the Corn Woman crossed the Rio Grande. _Cicuye_ is on the map as Pecos, in Texas. The Pawnees at this time occupied the country around the Platte River. Their name is derived from a word meaning "horn," and refers to their method of dressing the scalplock with grease and paint so that it stood up stiffly, ready to the enemy's hand. Their name for themselves is Chahiksichi-hiks, "Men of men." THE CONDOR'S STORY The _Old Zuni Trail_ may still be followed from the Rio Grande to the Valley of Zuni. _El Morro_, or "Inscription Rock," as it is called, is between Acoma and the city of Old Zuni which still goes by the name of "Middle Ant Hill of the World." In a book by Charles Lummis, entitled _Strange Corners of Our Country_, there is an excellent description of the Rock and copies of the most interesting inscriptions, with translations. The Padres of Southwestern United States were Franciscan Friars who came as missionaries to the Indians. They were not all of them so unwise as Father Letrado. _Peyote_, the dried fruit of a small cactus, the use of which was only known in the old days to a few of the Medicine Men. The effect was like that of opium, and gave the user visions. THE DOG SOLDIER'S STORY The Cheyenne Country, at the time of this story, was south of the Pawnees, along the Taos Trail. All Plains Indians move about a great deal, so that you will not always hear of them in the same neighborhood. You can read how the Cheyennes were saved from the Hoh by a dog, in a book by George Bird Grinnell, called the _Fighting Cheyennes_. There is also an account in that book of how their Medicine Bundle was taken from them by the Pawnees, and how, partly by force and partly by trickery, three of the arrows were recovered.
