Abstract
"The Pahwanwa pam band usually called Yakamas inhabit the Yakima river, a stream heading in the Cascade range and emptying into the Columbia above the junction of the Snake. The word signifies 'the Stony Ground' in allusion to the rocky character of their country. Roil-roil-pam is the Klickitat country situated in the Cascade mountains north of the Columbia and west of the Yakamas. Its meaning is the Mouse Country, referring to a popular local legend."
