n T is is time-honored story that
relates the origin of the name
Venezuela and one more to be
credited than the majority of
place name anecdotes. When Alon-
20 de Ojeda, accompanied by the
illustrious geographer, Amerigo Yes
pucci, entered the Gulf Of Mara
caibo in 1899 he found villages
raised on piles above the water.
From this circumstance he gave
the name "Gu.f of Venice" to the shall
low sea inclosed between the arid pen
insulas Of ,Goajira and Parajuana.
Those were days Of flowery speech and
fervid imagination; the comparison be-
tween Venice the Magnificent and the
homes of humble fishing Indians in the
new world struck the popular fancy
and soon the whole land was known as
Venezuela-Little Venice. The surviv-
ing pile-buflt villages north of the city
Of Maracaibo are still of great inter-
est to the ethnologist and to the trav-
eler with an eye for the picturesque.
Slipping out of Maracaibo at night
fall in a bongo manned by Parajuano
Indians, writes Herbert J. Spinden in
the American Museum Journal, we ar.
rived at the lagoon of Sinimaica at ten
o'clock next morning. The bongo is a
flat-bottomed boat propelled by sails
or poles and fit for navigating shallow

caibo was destroyed. Today one sees
at the latter site a few modern huts
built round the old plaza. Paved
streets can be traced out into the bush
and ruined walls enter the waters Of
the encroaching lake. Only a graceful
bell tower remains intact from former
times.
Lake Maracaibo is surrounded by 9
coastal plain extremely dry in the
north and given over to cactus and
thorny shrubs, but humid in the south
and clothed in heavy forest. The
sierras rise abruptly from the edge OF
this plain and to great heights. From
the southern end of the lake the Andes
seem an impossible wall with theil
forested slopes and fogbound crests
And indeed the trails that sidewinG
deep gorges and climb lofty ridges
only to drop again to the roaring
stream, find passes in the barren para
mo some $4,000 feet above the sea
The transitions from one type of en-
vironment to another are sudden and
startling.

called canos. There are three villages
of 'Parajuano Indians in this lagoon
bearing the Spanish names La Boquita,
La Boca del Cano, and El Barro. All

There is tide of perhaps two feet
In the lagoon and the houses rise two
or three feet above the high-water

yourself on a shaky platform of small

enter. The rectangular houses have
light frames and roofs of heavy thatch.
Mats inclose the sides and cover por-
