1. Several priests insist that the word refers to the dwellings or houses, kihu, of the clouds, 

 though all agree that the first part of the word, ^' Lata," is archaic; one of them, however, sug- 

 gested that it meant " your," in which case the line would read: " From your dwellings over yonder 

 come (here)." 



2. " Lataci-wuy." One of the priests stated that an old man had told him that this word 

 was an obsolete word for mongwikuru. This is not at all unlikely, as these vessels are used in all 

 ceremonies for getting from various springs the water that is used to asperge on altars, priests, 

 novitiates, seeds (see the Powalawu ceremony), etc. In that case, however, the explanation of 

 *'/ato," as given in the previous note, would hardly be admissible. 



3. The information obtainable on the last part of the word, " makata" is unsatisfactory.
