While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Bahacecha. A tribe visited by Onate in 1604, at which
time it resided on the Rio Colorado in Arizona, between Bill Williams fork and
the Gila. Their language was described as being almost the same as that of the
Mohave, whose territory adjoined theirs on the N. and with whom they were
friendly. Their houses were low, of wood covered with earth. They are not
identifiable with any present
Yuman tribe, although they occupied in Onate's time that part of the Rio
Colorado valley inhabited by the
Alchedoma in 1776. See Zarate - Salmeron (ca. 1629) in Land of Sunshine,
105, Jan., 1900; Garcés (1775-76), Diary, 1900; Bandelier in Arch. Inst.
Papers, in, 110, 1890. (F. W. H.)
