EXPLANATION OF THE MAP 
T HE map illustrating Fasciculi Malay ernes has been prepared by the 
Edinburgh Geographical Institute from the latest surveys of the Malay 
Peninsula, to which we have added the positions, as nearly as it was 
possible to do so, of certain villages in South Perak and the Patani States. 
We are also responsible for the location of the jungle tribes as indicated. 
With regard to spelling, we have chiefly followed that of the large map pub¬ 
lished by Stamford for the Straits Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, hut 
have attempted to standardize such common geographical terms as tanjong 
(Cape), and in a few instances, such as that of ‘Senggora,’ we have returned to 
an earlier form that seems to give a more accurate rendering of the Malay 
name. For adding an h at the beginning of such words as hulu , we can plead 
no such excuse, but only the custom of Malay writers and scholars. Especially 
in the Patani States, it is often impossible to render native names with any 
degree of accuracy, but we have thought it best to follow a simple mode of 
spelling in such cases, even though it is phonetically inexact, rather than to 
adopt the somewhat complicated symbols used by Mr. W, W, Skeat in 
transliterated local names in this and the adjacent dictricts. 1 
The expenses in connexion with the map have been defrayed out of a 
further grant of £100, made by the University of Edinburgh from the 
Earl of Moray Fund, towards the publication of our Reports.
