870 A correction

The reconstructed name, as a whole, is of interest as

indicating the persistence of a tradition of the tribe's originalaffiliation for at least some time after its arrival in Assam,and also in its close approach in sense to Tibetan hbrog mi"

people of the steppes ", as applied to their own nomadic

element.

a correction

Dr. Ruben 1ms written to point out that I have done him

an injustice in saying in the review of his book, Die Ny?ya

s?tra's, that the term s?m?nyato drstam is not in the indexes.

This I much regret, as it is given in the Glossar, p. 257, with

a cross-reference under dfsla on p. 235. Perhaps I may be

allowed to explain how the mistake arose. There are no

less than four indexes, and preceding them is a Glossar.

Index No. 1, like the Glossar, contains technical terms, but

only"

so weit die Stellen nicht durch das Glossar zu finden

sind ". But it is not enough to find the word, or to find it

absent, in one index. Many occur in both, with different

references in each, so that two indexes must always be

consulted. There are certainly pitfalls in the multiplicationof indexes.

misprints and mistakes.
