5. aisebot taro pestle. 
This is'clearly a compaction of ai wood with sebot, of sense not to be 
determined from the scanty data here presented. A note as to the 
carving of the handle of this implement will be found at page 16. 
7. andaman brother-in-law. 
Here is naturally suggested a connection with another term of 
relationship, daman father. We lack material upon which to base an 
interpretation of the an element, if it is to be considered a word stem, 
as it is safe to assume. Much remains obscure in the sense of such a 
compaction, for we can not readily figure to ourselves any system of 
affinity in which any element conditioned by the word for father can 
result in brother-in-law, a passage from consanguinity to affinity. 
Furthermore, it is to note that in the social system of these savages 
the relationship of brother-in-law does not arise for specific designa- 
tion. It is altogether likely that we have here an error in recording. 
8. and family house.
