Excerpt: Indians in New Mexico and Arizona reached Europe by way of Mexico proper; but it is very doubtful whether or not the aborigines Of Mexico had any positive information'to impart about countries lying north Of the present State Of Queretaro. The tribes to the north were, in the language of the valley-confederates, Chichimecas, a word yet unde fined, but apparently synonymous, in the conceptions Of the Nahuatl-speaking natives, with fierce savagery, and ulti mately adopted by them as a warlike title.
