Tea, 553-554. — The request of an envoy 

 from Arabia for tea-leaves (p. 554) 

 meets its counterpart in a similar docu- 

 ment recently translated by Sir E. D. 

 Ross (New China Review, Vol. I, p. 40), 

 who observes, "It is curious to note 

 from these memorials that tea, which 

 was first brought to Europe toward the 

 end of the sixteenth century, appears 

 to have been in demand in Arabia 

 long before that period." The ancient 

 Chinese form of the word for "tea" 

 was *da, which, like all initial dental 

 sonants, could pass into the palatal 

 series (hence mediaeval Chinese *dza 

 and dialect of Wa dzo), or could be 

 changed into the dental surd (hence 

 dialect of Fu-kien ta, the source of 

 our word "tea"; Korean ta, An- 

 namese tra).
