55 ectady was called Schonowe, the Great Flat. The three Mo- hawk castles lay far west of this, in Montgomery county. When first visited by the Dutch, there was a castle for each clan, the Bear, Wolf, and Turtle. Two villages only were in existence about A. D. 1600, as the Wolf clan sprang out of the Bear ac- cording to an eirly writer, probably having hved with them. One of the two villages is on the south side of the river ; the other is in Ephrata, in Fulton county. Albert Cusick thought Te-...haw- re-ho-geh better rendered as a Heart divided into two Hearts. It is Te-haw-e-ho-ge, in the Onondaga tongue. It may allude to this division and sub-division. Page 12. KaAv-na-taw-te-ruh, or Pineries, is the same as Can- astota. Morgan calls this Kan-e-to-ta, Pine Tree standing alone. The Onondagas, however, termed it Can-os-ta, the Frame of a house, from the first frame building there, which they greatly ad- mired. Page 12. Ne-haw-re tah-go-wah is Big Tree People. L. H. Morgan said they had this name from attending a treaty at Bos- ton.^ This was in 1723.
