For instance, to select a few examples from the wealth of illustration provided by Westermarck, the "Californian Gualala account it 'poison,' as they say, for a person to marry a cousin or an avuncular relation, and strictly observe in marriage the Mosaic table of prohibited affinities."[382] Among the "Bogos of Eastern Africa, persons related within the seventh degree may not intermarry, whether the relationship be on the paternal or maternal side;" and a similar rule exists among the Pipiles of San Salvador. "Among the Kalmucks, no man can marry a relation on the father's side; and so deeply rooted is this custom among them, that a Kalmuck proverb says, 'The great folk and dogs know no relationship,' alluding to the fact that only a prince may marry a relative." Often clan exogamy is enforced by the severest penalties. "The Algonquins tell of cases where men, for breaking this rule, have been put to death by their nearest kinsfolk."[383] [381] Here and there among low races one finds examples of alleged incest recorded. Thus among the New England Indians marriages between brothers and sisters are said to have existed: WAITZ, _Anthropologie_, III, 106. "Among these people only," says Turner of the Innuit on the Labrador coast, "have I heard of a son who took his mother as a wife, and when the sentiment of the community compelled him to discard her he took two other women, who were so persecuted by the mother that they believed themselves to be wholly under her influence." "Ethnology of the Ungava District," _XI. Rep. of Bureau of Eth._, 180. So also D'EVREUX suspects incest, not marriage, between brothers and sisters among the Brazilian Indians: _Voyage dans le Nord du Brésil, 1613-14_, 85-95. On the other hand, DOBRIZHOFFER says the Abipones abhor marriage with near kindred: _Relation_, II, 212; and the same appears to be true of the Kafirs: RATZEL, _History of Mankind_, II, 435. See also the examples mentioned by GROSSE, _Die Formen der Familie_, 129, 130. [382] WESTERMARCK, _op. cit._, 297; POWERS, _Tribes of California_, 192. [383] WESTERMARCK, _op. cit._, 297, 305, 306.
