NOTES. — * (21) it-e*lerlino seems rather to indicate the way in which he 
repeats the magic formula: formally speaking it could remind us both of the 
roots in ifo'rpoq ‘to be ashamed, to omit from shame, and itera’, ‘keep 
something in preservation, keep it holy, use it only on solemn occasions.” — 
*(24) Cf. WGr. kip'oq ‘sinks down together with something other’ < kiwi- ‘sink.’— 
* (30) "Your grandfather.’ This is doubtless only a lapse of memory, or slip of 
speech causing the story-teller to name the grandfather here and he corrects 
it at once by adding ‘your father, (the dog). — *(33) ‘Four races.’ In Boas’ 
variant from Cumberland Sound (1901, p. 167) the Inuit themselves are named: 
among the four peoples. The others are the Europeans, Ijigat (Gr. Isserqat) 
and Inuarudligat (Gr. тиагит Шао.

The earliest recorded version of this old Eskimo myth of the sun and 
the moon that I know is found in PAUL EGEDES Journal (pp. 53—54) for the 
year 1735 and is noted from Godthaab Fjord. In this the moon is called Aningat 
or Anningasinna, and the sun, the sister of the moon, Malina or Ajut. Accord- 
ing to West Greenland tradition the myth is localized near the big ice-fjord
