PERSONAL NAMES AND PEDIGRESS. 



A list of personal names is given below and fi-om these it appears 



that place-names, flowers, animals, with Malay words signifying 



eldest-bom (Sulong), middle-born (Xgah) and last-born (Bongsu) 



are all used as proper names. In the case of the man named Sapi, 



he was given this style owing to his having been born at Bukit Sapi 



(Wild Ox Hill), a place inhabited by one section of the Negritos, 



but he had also another name — Goh. The short pedigree was obtained 



from old Dahabok, the head of the Lenggong encampment. It was 



impossible to obtain any names fi'om him further back than those of 



his mother and father, and ho even seemed doubtful about his own 



childrens' names until they were recalled to him by his daugliter :
