In estimating the |>er-ceiitage of affinities I have adtlod 40 

 words of (lifferrnt classrs to eoin[dt!te the Imrtdred. A nuinerical 

 mode of sitating the amount of agreement has been adoptud be- 

 cause it is ihe most definite whatever be I he extent of the 

 vocahulariep collated j but the value of the result varies of couJse 

 with the kind and number of the wonis corn|Mired, and all deduc- 

 tion from purely glnssavial data must be taken in combinnlion with 

 the evidL'nce of other kinds as to the past and present relations of 

 the tribes ihemsflves. The absolute proportions obtainable fromi 

 a comparison of ent):e vocabnJaries will probably differ grf^atly 

 front those derived from 100 \rords. Bat the relative pro[>ortionjj 

 %m11 not be alfeeted in an Gqu:d degree by enlarging (he basis 

 of comparison. For example the aflinity of the South Indinn 

 voeabularies with the Gond may prove to be only 2>5 per cent, . 

 But if so that with the Kol will probably be rediieed in a [ ro portion 

 not very dissimihiri so that fbe relative amount of the South In- 

 dian affinities of the Kol and the Gond will not be Bf;riously 

 afft cted. 



In tracing the jrlussarial history of any formation we must beijin 

 with the modern chflfiges. For general ethnology also tbis is the 

 luiil coui-se^ bi'Ciiuse the only scientific principle that can giride us 

 ill our ciiquiiies into prc-hietortc events is that nations and their
