A youth and a maiden, son and daughter of twopriests, were thrown into this ocean. Two great pinnacles, which havebeen carved from the main mesa by weathering influences, are lookedupon by the Zuñi as the actual youth and maiden converted intostone, and are appealed to as "father" and "mother. " Many of the Zuñilegends and superstitions are associated with this mesa, while overits summit are spread the extensive ruins of the long ago desertedvillage. There are in many localities, around its pre...cipitous sidesand walls, shrines and groups of sacred objects which are constantlyresorted to by different orders of the tribe. Some of the mostinteresting of these are the most inaccessible. When easy of approachthey are in such secluded spots that a stranger might pass withoutdreaming of the treasures within his reach. On the western side ofthis mesa are several especially interesting shrines. About half wayup the acclivity on the west side an overhanging rock forms thebase of one of the pinnacles referred to.
