چکیده
Cover Page Footnote: Acknowledgments. This paper was first written for the conference “Comparative Arawakan Histories” organized by Jonathan Hill and Fernando Santos-Granero, held at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama in July 2000. I am grateful to all of the participants in that conference for their helpful comments on and generous tolerance of this marginal Aruan case. I am particularly grateful to Dan Rosengren who was an insightful commentator on this paper. That earlier draft was also presented at the first SALSA conference in New Orleans in January 2001, organized by Bill Balée and Jeffrey Ehrenreich, and I am equally grateful to the participants in that conference for their suggestions.
