The Jicarilla Apache Indians are somewhat divided as to the exact place from which their ancestors are alleged to have emerged from the subterranean world. Pages 26, 57, and 163-164 of Morris E. Opler‘s book “MYTHS AND TALES OF THE JICARILLA APACHE INDIANS” gives the information that some of the Apache’s believe their place of emergence to be somewhere west of Flint Mountain, which is west of Abiquiu, New Mexico. Others place it north of Durango Colorado; near Alamosa; or in the San Juan Mts. of Colorado.
