The country of the 



Akas is but 



sparsely inhabited. 



The numbers 



are these — 









Tribes.

inhabitants. 



Kapachor Akas

510 



Hazarikhowas

580 



5800 



Total, 



24 



669 



6614 



I have not included the Meri-Akas in the above, as, although they 

 are closely allied by marriage, &c, with the Kapachors, yet their in- 

 terests are not so identical with the Kapachors as are those of the Mijis.
