 Elsewhere he has nukkonahiuk (old

 more often, aii/omp or eiijomp (Ps. 42, 1; 

 Cant. 2,17), also transl. 'roe' (Prov. 5, 

 19; 6, 5; Cant. 8, 14). Of the several

 ■nogh-ich, deer; waught-Aggar:hi/, 'deer,

 Tribes, iii, 520) says of the tradition 

 that at the first deers were the hunters 

 of men, and his statement that the 

 mythic "Adik was a famous hunter of 

 the North", etc. Look for the possible 

 relation of Mass. adchai'i, 'he hunts', 

 alirhu, 'he strives after', etc., and aJituk 

 {alfiick), 'deer'.]
