st and Present_, 118-121; Keane, _Ethnology_, 246-248; and Sir W. H. Flower, _Essays on Museums_, cap. xix. [333] Latham, _Man and his Migrations_, 55, 56. Dr. Beke was a most cautious observer, and I have consulted all his contributions to the _Journal of the Geographical Society_ (vol. xiii.) and have found no sign of his retraction of the evidence. His correspondence in the _Literary Gazette_ of 1843, p. 852, discusses the question of the Dokos being pygmies, but he adheres to his information as to the absence of social structure being correct. [334] Lib. ii. 32, 8; _cf._ Quatrefages, _The Pygmies_, cap. 1, "The Pygmies of the Ancients." [335] Lieut.-Col. Sutherland, _Memoir respecting the Kaffirs, Hottentots, and Bosjemans_, i. 67 (Cape Town, 1846). [336] Burrows, _The Land of Pygmies_, 182. [337] Mr. A. B. Lloyd's volume _In Dwarfland and Cannibal Country_, p. 96, is the most recent evidence. [338] It is worth noting here that the Chinese traditions of the pygmies are exceedingly suggestive and curious. See Moseley, _Notes by a Naturalist_, 369. [339] Skeat and Blagden, _Malay Peninsula_, ii. 443. [340] _Journ. Indian Archipelago_, iv. 425-427; _cf._ _Journ. Anthrop. Inst._, xvi. 228; Wallace, _Malay Archipelago_, 452. [341] Clifford, _In Court and Kampong_, 171-181. [342] Skeat and Blagden, _Pagan Races of Malay Peninsula_, i. 13. [343] _Op. cit._, i. 53-4, 139, 169, 172, 341. [344] _Op. cit._, i. 170. [345] _Op. cit._, i. 243-248, 268. [346] _Op. cit._, i. 494; ii. 56, 218. [347] _Op. cit._, ii. 3. Compare _Journ. Indian Archipelago_, iv. 427, "they are called after particular trees, that is, if a child is born under or near a cocoanut or durian, or any particular tree in the forest, it is named accordingly," and John Anderson, _Considerations relative to Malayan Peninsula_, 1824, p. xli. [348] _Op. cit._, ii. 4, 192, 194. [349] _Op. cit._, ii. 174, 209. [350] _Archaeological Review_, i. 13, from an official report published in a Government Blue Book. [351] Brinton, _The American Race_; Curtin, _Creation Myths of Primitive America_. [352] Darwin, _Journal of Researches_, 228. [353] _Anthropological Inst._, vii. 502-510. [354] Quatrefages, _The Pygmies_, 24, 48, 69. [355] There is ample evidence of this characteristic. Thus, of the Australians of Port Lincoln district, it is said that "the habit of constantly changing their place of rest is so great that they c
