    Quicamopas Quiquimas Sibubapas . Sisimbres Sivolos... Sobaipures Sobas (Sovas) Supis Tapacolmes.. Tecargonis 1.. Tecayaguis... Tecayas Tehatas Tehuizos (Tehuisos).. Teparan tanas Tint is Tochos Yuman, in United States. Same as Quemeya. This, according to Orozco y Berra (1:351), was the name given to the people of Suaqui, a I^ower Pima pueblo. It is not included in his list of languages. Mentioned by Orozco v Berra (1:325) as living near the Tobo- Bos. Not in his list of languages. No further notice found. Mentioned in connection with the Concho (Orozco y Berra, 1:327). Not identified; evidently distinct from the inhab- itants of the ancient Cibola, the “province” of Zuni in New Mexico. Part of the Upper Pima. In United States. (Maj. J. W. Powell in Seventh Annual Report of Bureau of Ethnology, 98). Bancroft makes two mistakes regarding these Indians. In vol. I, 603, he locates them among the Lower Pima, and in his general index (vol. v) he places them with the “Pueblos.” Extinct. Pima subtribe included by Orozco y Berra in his list of tribes, but not in his list of languages. Given by Orozco y Berra (1:386) erroneously as connected with the Faraon Apache. Abbreviation of Havasupai, Yuman, in United States. Given by the same author (1:327) as connected with the Concho. Not included in his list of languages. A band or pueblo speaking the Varohio dialect (Orozco y Berra, 1:324). He refers in a note to the Doc. Hist. Mex., 4th s.. Ill, 386 et seq., but the name is not found there. Orozco y Berra (1:356) places these among the extinct peoples of Sonora, with the following remark; “ En las vertientes del rio [Mayo], antes de los Tepahues, se encontraban los Tecayaguis, Cues 6 Macoyahuis, con su lengua particular el Macoyahuy.” As this author does not include the name in his list of languages, it is probable that he intended by the above remark that the Tecayagui spoke the Macoyahui idiom. Mentioned by Alegre (i, 379-380) as in Topia apparently as the people of a pueblo, probably of San Mateo Tecayas, and by Orozco y Berra (1:55, 319) as speaking the Acaxee language. As the name is not given in Orozco y Berra’s list of languages and as nothing more is found recorded regarding them, they may be omitted. Given by Orozco y Berra (1:58, 353) as a band or subtribe of the Pima in Sonora, but not speaking a distinct idiom. (See Basiroas, Eios, p. 32.) See Huvagueres, above; also Basiroas, Hijos, p. 32. Orozco y Berra mentions (1:61, 75, 356) Teparantana as an extinct language of Sonora, without any particulars. Orozco y Berra (1:58, 324) mentions these Indians as con- nected with the Tubar and speaking their language, but does not give the name in his list of languages. Mentioned by Orozco y Berra as near the Toboso (1:325), and included in his list of tribes (1:75), but there is noth- ing to indicate that they spoke a distinct idiom.
