APPENDIX V. 
I append here a list of a few Arunta and Luritclia words. Thanks to tlie 
a.ssistanco of Mr. Gillen for the former, and of Mr. Cowlc for the latter, tribe it 
would Iiave been pos.sible greatly to extend the range of these vocabularies but I 
have thought it is sufficient for the purpo.ses of this paper to restrict them to a 
few common words. And to facilitate comparison between various vocabularies of 
Central Australian tribes I have practically adopted the list of words used in a 
similar connection on the Elder Expedition. 
Column 2 of the following table contains words, used by the Arunta-Ilpma 
section of the Arunta tribe at Alice Springs, recorded by Mr. Gillen. 
In Column 3 are a few expressions obtained from an Arunta native from 
Dalhousie Springs, which differ slightly or wholly from tho.se of Column 2. For 
the most part, however, the words used by this native (our guide Harry) are either 
identical or closely similar to those of the Alice Springs blacks, and there were no 
difficulties in conversation between any members of the Arunta tribe with whom 
we came in contact. 
Column 3 contains words obtained from members of the Luritclia tribe at the 
Illamurta police camp by Mr. Cowle.
