It thus will appear that the special supernatural personage represented varies from year to year within certain limits, and the variations mean nothing more than that the members of the different kivas participate in rotation. NAMES OF MONTHS AND CORRESPONDING CEREMONIALS The Tusayan names of the months are as follows: +---------------------+------------------+ | _Months_ | _Ceremonials_ | +---------------------+------------------+ | 1. Powámü′iyawû[10] | Powámû. | | 2. Ü′cümü′iyawû | Pálülükoñti. | | 3. Kwiyaomü′iyawû. | | | 4. Hakitonmü′iyawû. | | | 5. Kelemü′iyawû. | | | 6. Kyamü′iyawû | Nimán. | | 7. Pamü′iyawû | (Snake, Flute.) | | 8. Powa′mü′iyawû | Lálakoñti. | | 9. Hüükmü′iyawû | | |10. Ü′cümü′iyawû | Mamzraúti. | |11. Kelemü′iyawû | Wüwütcímti. | |12. Kyamü′iyawû | Soyáluña. | |13. Pamü′iyawû | Katcina’s return. | +---------------------+------------------+ The second part of the October (Ü′cü) is said to be called Tü′hoe. If this is recognized as a lunar period we would have 14 divisions to the ceremonial year. In the Pamü′iyawû, the Snake ceremony, and the Katcina’s return, the same Nüitiwa (struggle of maids for bowls, etc) occurs.
