_3. The Paniquitas and Paezes._
A number of tribes living to the north and west of the Chibchas seem to
have belonged to one stock. They are mentioned by the older historians as
acting in alliance, as in constant war with the Chibchas, and several of
them as speaking dialects of a tongue wholly different from the Chibchas.
Their stage of culture was lower, but they were acquainted with the bow,
the sling and the war-club, and had fixed habitations. I give the list of
these presumably related tribes, and apply to the stock the name of one
of the modern tribes which retain the language.[251]
