Some of these, as the ruins at the sacred spring called Kishuba, are of the utmost traditional importance. I. Middle Mesa ruins Old Shuñopovi; Old Mishoñinovi; Shitaumû; Chukubi; Payüpki. II. East Mesa ruins Kisakobi; Küchaptüvela; Küküchomo; Tukinobi; Kachinba; Sikyatki. III. Ruins in Keam's canyon. IV. Jeditoh valley ruins Bat-house; Jeditoh, Kawaika; Horn-house; Awatobi; Smaller Awatobi.

At Middle Mesa, Chukubi and Payüpki became ruins, and in Antelope valley Awatobi was the last of the Jeditoh series to fall. There has thus been a gradual tendency to drift from readily accessible locations to the most impregnable sites, which indicates how severely the Hopi must have been harassed by their foes.

The only inhabitants of the Awatobi mesa are a Navaho family, who have appropriated, for the shade it affords, a dwarf cedar east of the old mission walls. No land is cultivated, save that in the canyons above mentioned, west of the sand hills; some fair harvests are, however, still gathered from Antelope valley by the Navaho, especially in the section higher up, near Jeditoh spring.
