TUKINOBI

There are evidences that the large hill on top of East Mesa, not far

from the twin mounds, was once the site of a pueblo of considerable

size, but I have not been able to gather any definite legend about it.

Near this ruin is the "Eagle shrine" in which round wooden imitations

of eagle eggs are ceremonially deposited, and in the immediate

vicinity of which is another shrine near which tracks are cut in the

rock, and which were evidently considered by the Indian who pointed

them out to me as having been made by some bird.[46] It is probably

from these footprints, which are elsewhere numerous, that the two

ruins called Küküchomo ("footprints mound") takes its name.
