cooi'ER] BIBLIOGRAPHY OF TRIBES OF TIEBEA DEL FUEGO 179 



among the Yahgans, to judge from the fact that certain clans or 

 families frequented certain localities and were called by the names 

 thereof (Th. Bridges, h, Oct. 1, 1884, 224; Martial, 196; cf. also 

 Morales, 62, and Marcel, c, 107 for the Alacaluf). Much more light is 

 needed on this whole subject. 



The sense of ownership of personal property, such as the spoils of 

 the chase, artifacts, and the movable windshield or hut, is clearly 

 marked, and the right definitely recognized by all three Fuegian tribes 

 (Hyades, q, 243; p, 335; Despard, h, 716; King, 76-77; C. Gallardo, 

 252) ; stealing is considered decidedly reprehensible (Hyades, q, 243 ; 

 Dabbene, h, 198; Despard, &, 698, 746). Women and cliildren have 

 well recognized property rights (King, 76-77, children; Th. Bridges, 

 h, 210; I, Mar. 1, 1876, 57; Hyades, ^, 243; Fr. Cook, h, 729). 



Barter 



Barter between the Fuegians and the whites, between the three 

 Fuegian tribes, and l)etween members of the same tribe is a common 

 feature of Fuegian life, as barter with the Chilotans was of Chonoan 

 (Beranger, 13). The Onas often make long journeys for purposes of 

 barter (Cojazzi, 64; C. Gallardo, 291). 



Among the Yahgans at least barter by exchange of presents was a 

 normal usage; a gift was made, regardless often of the wishes of the 

 recipient, who could not refuse it without affrontmg the giver and 

 who was expected to give sometliing in retm-n (Th. Bridges, a, Fr. 

 tr., 179; 6, Dec. 1, 1875, 218; c, 114; cf. also Weddell, 153). 



None of the Fuegian tribes has any kind of. money, nor any kind 

 of weight or measure. 



For disposal of property at death see under Relatioiisliip and 

 Death and Burial.

In their material culture the Fuegians show little evidence of the 

 inventive genius of their arctic counterparts, the Eskimo; their arms.
