SWANTON— TIMUCUA RELATIONSHIP 



men. We find the following additional examples: ahono viro misoma, 

 my elder son; ahono nia misoma, my elder daughter; ahono viro paca- 

 noqua, my intermediate son; ahono nia pacanoqua, my intermediate 

 daughter; ahono viro quianima, my younger son; ahono viro iubuacoli, 

 ahono viro quianicocoma, my youngest or last son; ahono nia iubuacoli, 

 ahono nia quianicocoma, my youngest or last daughter; ahono viro 

 isicora, ahono chirico, ahono isinahoma, my very last son. 



Coni; nephew, niece, the term used by a man for his sister's child ; 

 conina, my nephew or niece. 



Ebo, ewo; nephew, niece, the term used by a woman for her 

 brother's child, and also for her mother's brother's child; ebona or 

 ewona, my nephew or niece. 



Anetana ano etana was applied by a woman to her brother's son 

 after his death (-wa = my). 



Quisito. Quisitomale signifies "the grandson and the grand- 

 father", therefore quisito was probably the stem of the word for 

 grandchild. It is perhaps related to the term quisotimi or quisotina 

 given sometimes to the father's sister's child, and to a stepchild of 

 either sex, and to "third cousins". The term for brother's wife and 

 sister's husband very much resembles it, but we can hardly suppose 

 the resemblance anything more than accidental. 



Inihi; the term usually employed for wife. Husband and wife 

 were known as inihimale. 



Inifa; the term usually employed for husband. 



Taca. This was used for husband and wife. Probably this term

Tafi. This simple term seems to have been applied by a man to 

 his brother's wife ; tafimitana was applied by a woman to her husband's 

 brother. The ending -na is probably the pronominal suffix of the 

 first person, -mita appears to be some sort of reciprocal, used par- 

 ticularly with "in-law" terms of relationship. 



Iquilnona; a term give by a man to his wife's sister's husband. 



Yame. This was given by a man to his sister's husband, and 

 probably by a woman to her sister's husband also; perhaps also by 

 a man to his wife's brother. In the Timucua dialect it assumed the 

 form yamancha or yamanchu. Yamemitana was the reciprocal term 

 given by a man to his wife's sister. 



Quisa. Niquisa, "my (w.s.) brother's wife", niquisimitana, "my 

 husband's sister". 



Nasi; the term applied by a man or a woman to his or her son- 

 in-law; also the name given to the husband of a niece, a brother's 

 daughter in the case of a man and a sister's daughter in the case of
