  southern 
  Andes 
  — 
  by 
  the 
  middle 
  of 
  the 
  eighteenth 
  century, 
  through 
  

   actual 
  Araucanian 
  invasion, 
  to 
  the 
  peoples 
  of 
  the 
  Pampa, 
  and, 
  some- 
  

   time 
  between 
  1670 
  and 
  1741, 
  through 
  Araucanian 
  contacts, 
  to 
  the 
  

   Tehuelche 
  of 
  Patagonia 
  as 
  far 
  south 
  as 
  the 
  Strait 
  of 
  Magellan. 
  

  

  Such 
  in 
  brief 
  appear 
  to 
  be 
  the 
  broad 
  lines 
  of 
  aboriginal 
  South 
  

   American 
  cultural 
  evolution, 
  as 
  far 
  as 
  our 
  available 
  somatological, 
  

   linguistic, 
  ethnological, 
  archeological, 
  and 
  historical 
  evidence 
  reveals 
  

   them. 
  Some 
  of 
  this 
  reconstruction 
  is 
  derived 
  from 
  dated 
  historical 
  

   documents. 
  Much 
  of 
  it 
  rests 
  on 
  evidence 
  that 
  yields 
  temporal 
  infer- 
  

   ences 
  of 
  from 
  reasonable 
  to 
  high 
  probability. 
  But 
  on 
  many 
  points 
  our 
  

   data 
  are 
  pathetically 
  meager, 
  and 
  the 
  provisional 
  reconstruction 
  we 
  

   have 
  ventured 
  to 
  propose 
  will 
  in 
  all 
  likelihood 
  have 
  to 
  be 
  revised 
  not 
  

   only 
  in 
  many 
  of 
  its 
  details 
  but 
  also 
  in 
  some 
  of 
  its 
  major 
  lines 
  long 
  be- 
  

   fore 
  the 
  several 
  kindred 
  disciplines 
  concerned 
  shall 
  have 
  gleaned 
  their 
  

   last 
  fact 
  and 
  spoken 
  their 
  last 
  word.
