KACHINBA

The small ruin at Kachinba, the halting place of the Kachina people,

seems to have escaped the attention of students of Tusayan archeology.

It lies about six miles from Sikyatki, about east of Walpi, and is

approached by following the trail at the foot of the same mesa upon

which Küküchomo is situated. The ruin is located on a small foothill

and has a few standing walls. It was evidently diminutive in size and

only temporarily inhabited. The best wall found at this ruin lies at

the base of the hill, where the spring formerly was. This spring is

now filled in, but a circular wall of masonry indicates its great size

in former times.
