“My father’s mother was named Nakai Asdzaan, ‘Mexican Woman’. . . . She died over in the Bear’s Ears country, and is buried there. She did not go to Fort Sumner [Bosque Redondo], because she was with the group that hung out with Kaayelii in the Haahootso.” K’aayelii was Manuelito’s brother. Kigalia Point and Kigalia Canyon, high on Elk Ridge north of Cedar Mesa, are named after him.
