THE OTO

The author has not yet learned the exact camping order of the Oto and Missouri tribes, though he has recorded lists of their gentes (subject to future revision), with the aid of Ke-ʞreɔ̉e, an Oto, Ckaʇɔinye, a Missouri, and Battiste Deroin, the interpreter for the two tribes. These gentes are as follows: 1, Pa-çaʹ, Beaver; 2, Tunaⁿʹ-p‘iⁿ, Black bear, or Mŭⁿ-tciʹ-ra-tce, Wolf; 3, A-ruʹ-qwa, Buffalo; 4, Ruʹ-qtca, Pigeon; 5, Ma-kaʹ-tce, Owl; 6, Tceʹ-xi-ta, Eagle, Thunderbird, etc; 7, Wa-kaⁿʹ, Snake.
