(5.) Distribution of Crests. 
The following tables conveniently summarize the preceding 
data. Each column is headed by a combination of numbers 
referring to one of the clans; the first (arabic) numeral refers to 
the numbered list of tribes (see page 3) , the second (roman) to the 
phratry as ranked in the tribe, the third (arabic) to the clan 
within the phratry. Thus, the column headed 3. II. 2 contains the 
crests, so far as recorded, of the second clan of the second phratry 
of the third tribe, i.e. the crests of the %itse''*q' clan of the 
Eagle phratry of the %itwankci'lk u . The occurrence of any one 
of the crests enumerated in the first column in a particular 
clan is indicated by a letter in its column corresponding to 
the order in which the crest occurs in the preceding outline. 
The main crest of a clan may be readily ascertained by reference 
to “a" in its column.
