INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS
The Kroeber Anthropological Society Papers publish articles in the gen-
eral field of anthropology, including those which it is difficult, for various
reasons, to publish elsewhere. In addition to articles of theoretical inter-
est, the Papers will welcome descriptive studies putting factual information
on record, as well as bibliographies, linguistic texts, vocabularies and
historical documents of anthropological interest. The Society welcomes stu-
dent research papers of high quality.
Manuscripts must be typewritten, double spaced, on good quality 8-1/2
by 11 inch paper, and on one side of the page only. Endnotes (the Papers
do not employ footnotes) and bibliography should be placed on separate
sheets. The bibliographic style to be followed is that used in this number
of the Papers.  Authors will note that the bibliographic style is an extended
version of Mat employed by the American Anthropologist. A style sheet con-
taining further information concerning manuscripts and bibliographic style
may be obtained from the Society upon request.
Authors will receive without charge twenty reprints of their articles.
Additional reprints may be ordered at the price of one cent per page. A
small extra charge will be made if illustrations must be reproduced by
photolithography. When notified of the acceptance of their manuscripts,
authors will be asked how many additional reprints they desire.
Manuscripts should be addressed to:
