Marquette names 8 or 9 nations or villages up the Arkansas, but I'm confident he 
named no Miami-Illinois-speaking village. I don't happen to be carrying a copy 
of the map with me at the moment. :) But I'll look and get back to you. 

As an relevant aside, Campeau pointed out that Marquette's Narration and 
Marquette's map were intended to complement each other,  which explains, for 
example, why, in his narration, he does not name the group he met just south of 
the Ohio, but on the map we see <MONS8PELEA>.
