The Moquis

-The Moquis Indiana of Arizona, nunibering seventeen hundred, live in seven villages on the top of three cliff's or headlands that rise more than six hundred feet above the plains. Why tliey chose these unhandy places is a mystery. On reaching the villagcs, says a recent visitor, one linds one's seíf on a flat ledge of bare rock, which extends out from the main table nearly half a mile in length and from ten to perhaps three huñdred feet in wldth. The sides are almost perpendicular, ïhe most populous of these YÏÏlagea, Wal-la-pi, is on the extreme end of the rock, where the width is not over a hundred feet. ïhe water for all purposes is carried on the backs of men and women from a spring near the foot of the mountain, a distance of nearly a mile, while the wood is brought eight miles. Here these people have lived longer than they can teil, even from their traditions and ttrtherto they have been averse to a change of location not withstanding the diflïeulty of obtaining their necessary supplies and the distance from their flelds and herbs.
