The foregoing lists are based upon that element of the Paumotu 

 which occurs in the Rapanuiaswell. Lest this should prove insufficient, 

 or too highly restricted in its character, to afford a clear view of the 

 speech of the Paumotu it has seemed advisable to tabulate the elements 

 of that language which are traceable elsewhere in the Polynesian family. 

 The data thus elaborated are presented on page 64, the serial numera- 

 tion continued from the finding-list of the Rapanui material. 



In two of the following groups, the general Polynesian and the Ton- 

 gafiti, we lack support from the Maori in several instances, but the 

 correlation is establishable through the Hawaiian or, less frequently, 

 through Mangaian or Rarotongan of the mid-ocean chain of islands of 

 probably Tongafiti settlement. I have accordingly distinguished these 

 entries in the proper tables by employing bold-faced type for the 

 Hawaiian identification and italic for the mid-oceanic. The Hawaiian 

 instances may prove of considerable importance in future study of these 

 data, but the discussion of their specific moment is wide of the present 

 inquiry. I note only that it would not surprise me if , in particular study 

 of the Tongafiti race movements, such as I am bestowing upon the 

 Proto-Samoan swarms, these data establish a course of migration into 

 Southeast Polynesia, and thence out of it to the northward, quite dis- 

 tinct from the southern migration which has colonized New Zealand. 



Our first series of tables will be based upon identifications established 

 in general Polynesian.
