Utina vs. Agua Dulce

[edit]

Thinking about this some more, I think Agua Dulce people would be a better title for this article. "Utina" was the chiefdom that existed in the early historical period, but later on the Spanish used the term "Agua Dulce" for the people of this area. This article covers both. The sources tend to follow the historical Spanish usage, referring to the 16th-century chiefdom as the "Utina chiefdom" (or variants) and the later chiefdom and people as "Agua Dulce".
Additionally, as "Agua Dulce" could refer to speakers of the Agua Dulce dialect regardless of whether they were part of a chiefdom, it may be a better name for an article covering all periods. If no one objects I'll move the article.Cúchullain t/c 18:04, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I finally got around to this move.--Cúchullain t/c 19:38, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
