112 THE SUBANU. 
Whether po is abraded from oc, and equally fa from faka, is a matter 
with which we need not here concern ourselves. It remains that we 
have the two forms faka and fa in substantially the same sense, but 
faka is far the more commonly in use.

It will be observed that all these affiliations are found in the 
Celebes and Philippine subprovinces; in western Indonesia this stem 
has gone into disuse under the sweep of the stem ruma, which seems to 
have been in Proto-Samoan possession all the way through the Mela- 
nesian traverse, but has dropped out, except for its retention in Maori 
in a particular sense.

The phonetic variety is here of the simplest type and nothing need 
detain us upon this score except to observe the interesting, yet at 
present isolated, fact that the most frequent Indonesian type pana is 
found intrusively in the Marquesas at the eastern verge of Polynesian 
migration. ‘The whole vexing subject of the use of the bow and arrow 
in the two island areas is entertainingly and exhaustively discussed by 
Captain Georg Friederici, at page 119 of his recent work ‘‘ Neu-Guinea.”’ 
Butif the phonetic curves are particularly smooth, the case is apparently 
different when we come to examine the range of sense. I have not 
detailed this in the individual identifications of affiliates; it is quite 
enough to mention here that the signification ranges along three items, 
to shoot, the bow, the arrow. ‘This affords an excellent opportunity,
