It is to be presumed they correspond in use to the oval council houses of the Pima. The food of the Pima and the Papago in a general way is similar to that of the pueblo dwellers. They live in part upon the domesticated animals and plants and in part upon wild animals and wild vegetable products. For the Papago at least, the proportion of wild food is greater than with the pueblo people. Before Spanish times the cultivated crops were maize, squash, beans, and cotton. Wheat seems to have been in...troduced at an early date, perhaps even before direct contact with the Spaniards. It is well adapted to the soil and climate and has become the most im portant of the cultivated crops. Considerable quantities of corn and wheat were furnished to the various expedi tions and travelers passing the Pima villages during the middle of the nineteenth century. A small breed of fowls was introduced among the Papago and reached the Pima. Besides they acquired horses, donkeys, cattle, sheep, and goats. As far as the environment would permit, they became Europeanized in the matter of domesticated animals and crops at least a century ago.
