Excerpt: ...or Wagnbe-gaxe-aka, He-who-acts-mysteriously. B, The Wata n zi-jide-centsataj, Those-who-eat-no-red-corn. In the tribal circle the Wacabe camped next to the Inke-sab, and the Waqecentsxe-aci n were next to the Wasabe-hitaj subgens of the centsatada; but in the Hanga gentile assembly the positions were reversed, the Wacabe sitting on the right side of the fire and the Waqcentsexe-acentsi n on the left. The Wasabe-hitaj subgens of the centsatada was divided into four sections: Black-bear, Raccoon, Grizzly-bear, and Porcupine. The only survivors are the Black-bear and Raccoon (Singers). The Wajinga centsataj subgens was divided into four sections: 1, Hawk people, under the chief Standing Hawk (now dead). 2, Blackbird people, under the chief Waji n a-gahiga. B, Starling or Thunder people. 4, Owl and Magpie people. The a n ze gens was divided into at least two subgentes, the Keepers of the pipe and the Wind people. Lion, of the Deer-head gens, said that there were four subgentes, but this was denied in 1882 by Two Crows of the Hanga gens. pg 228 The Ma n centsinka-gaxe subgentes, as given by Lion, were: 1, Coyote and Wolf people. 2, I n -waqube-acentsi n, Keepers-of-the-mysterious-stones. 3, Niniba-ta n, Keepers-of-the-pipe. 4, Mi n xa-sa n -wetaj . Touch(es)-not-swans. Cange-sk, White Horse, chief of the Ma n centsin-ka-gaxe (in 1878-1880) named three subgentes, thus: 1, Qube, Mysterious person, a modern name (probably including the Mi asi and I n -waqube-acentsi n, and certainly consisting of the descendants of the chief Wa-jinga-sabe or Blackbird). 2, Niniba-ta n . 3, Mi n xa-sa n -wetaj . The a- d a were divided into four parts: 1, Niniba-ta n, Keepers-of-the-pipe, under Lion. 2, Naqcentse-itaj, Touches-no-charcoal, under Boy Chief. 3, Thunder-people, under Pawnee Chief. 4, Deer-people, under Sinde-xa n xa n (Deer's-)tail-shows-red-at-intervals (-as-it-bounds-away). The Ictasanda gens also was in four pa
