Dr. Washington Matthews has kindly made for me a number of observations upon Navajo Indians with reference to this anatomical peculiarity. It is not markedly present among them.

Dr. Rodrigues was Director of the Botanical Museum of the Amazons. His work contains careful vocabularies of over 700 words in the Macuchi, Ipurucoto and Crichana dialects. His journeys to the Rio Jauapery were undertaken chiefly from philanthropic motives, which unfortunately did not bear the fruit they merited. [379] “D’un blanc presque pur.” Dr. J.

These are not to be confounded with the Apiacas of the Rio Arinos, who are of Tupi stock. The word _apiaca_ or _apiaba_ in Tupi means simply “men.” [382] A. S.

The former has been republished (1877), and also translated into German by Von der Gabelentz (1852). [391] _Durch Central-Brasilien_, s. 303. This writer looks upon the Cariris as a remote off-shoot from the Carib stock.
