_42d Event._ AUMATEX a great Cazic marries the female Zemi _Guabanzex_, goddess of waters and wind, and she has two sons _Guatauva_ and _Pregonero_, who become male Zemis.
It is impossible to say if this event belongs to this time or to the cosmogony. I presume it is historical, alluding to new tribes, and perhaps foreign to Hayti. The names are difficult to explain, nor is it stated what these sons performed; but being sons of water and wind, they must have led colonies by sea elsewhere. They are perhaps the ancestors of the Guataios and the Puruays?(78)
_43d Event._ COROCORO the quadruped Zemi of the Caracols? was the ancestor of two lines of kings, _Guamorete_ and _Guatabanex_, who rule in Hayti. His temple was in _Sacaba_, and his high-priest was called _Cavava-Niovava_. Cave father and our father.
This alludes to different tribes than the Guaninis: _Coro_ was a tribe in Cumana. Perhaps this is another version of the 10th Event, or a proper indication of the subsequent institutions of the Caracol nation, when more civilized, and become the Mayorex.
_44th Event._ Arrival in Hayti, Cuba &c. of the first _Bohito_ (old man), a priest and legislator, called _Boition_ by Dangleria, meaning both _Priest-solar_ and Old _Ion_: he introduces agriculture and the use of bread, divides the nation into 3 castes, _Tainos_, or nobles, _Bohitos_ or priests, _Anaborias_ or vassals, and these last into tillers, hunters and fishermen. He becomes pontif, settles the religion; establishing mysteries and oracles, the worship of Zemis, and many other institutions, holydays, festivals, religious dances, schools &c., declaring the land common to all, like the sun and water.
There are at least 3 Bohitos, that came to Hayti and Cuba, and civilized the people; but it is difficult to distinguish the deeds of each. They were probably priests leading more civilized colonies from the east or from America. Their name which is variously spelt or varies in dialects was also _Buhuti_, _Boitio_, _Bauti_, _Buhui_, _Boyeto_ &c., is akin to the _Boyez_, _Poyes_, _Piazes_, _Payes_ of South America, used by the Aruacs, Guaranis and Carib tribes, _Piaches_ of Tamanacs, _Bauti_ of Dabaiba, _Papas_ of Central America, _Bochica_ of Muyzcas; but the names of priests all over ancient eastern nations, have still more analogies(79)--and therefore they came from the east. The civilization and religion introduced or improved by them is also oriental; it was more advanced than we are aware; since they had ample fields and orchards, roads and canals, schools in which they taught history, religion, medicine and useful arts. Of their astronomy nothing has been preserved, nor of their hieroglyphs.
