She ran away from him, but he followed her and beat her yet more.

And she wept, and in her anger she turned and reviled her husband, and threw her basket at him.

And while they were in this attitude, one facing the other, they were turned into stone for their wickedness, and there they still retain.

The upturned basket lies beside the husband, where the woman threw it, and the woman's face is tear stained with long dark lines trailing down.
Half-Dome is the woman Tis-sa'-ack and North Dome is her husband, while beside the latter is a smaller dome which is still called Basket Dome to this day.
LEGEND OF THE GRIZZLY BEAR.
The significance and derivation of the name "Yosemite," as given by old Tenei'-ya, chief of the tribe, have been explained in another chapter, but there is also a legendary account of its origin, which may be of interest.
Long, long ago, when the remote ancestors of the Yosemite Indians dwelt peacefully in the valley called Ah-wah'-nee [Yosemite Valley], one of the stalwart young braves of the tribe went early one morning to spear some fish in the lake Ah-wei'-yah [Mirror Lake].

Before reaching his destination he was confronted by a huge grizzly bear, who appeared from behind one of the enormous boulders in that vicinity, and savagely disputed his passage.

Indians believe that this great rock grew from a small boulder.
See "Legend of the Tul-tok'-a-na."] Being attacked in this unexpected manner, the Indian defended himself to the best of his ability, using for the purpose the dead limb of a tree which was near at hand, and, after a long and furious struggle, in which he was badly wounded, he at length succeeded in killing the bear.
His exploit was considered so remarkable by the rest of the tribe that they called him Yo-sem'-i-te (meaning a full-grown grizzly bear), in honor of his achievement, and this name was transmitted to his children, and eventually to the whole tribe.
LEGEND OF THE TUL-TOK'-A-NA.
There were once two little boys living in the Valley of Ah-wah'-nee, who went down to the river to swim.
