I am grateful to Professor A. P. Vayda for thoughtful criticism and suggestions which I was not always able to follow. Conversation and correspondence with Ruth and Barry Craig, anthropologists with extensive experience in the West Sepik including Telefomin, and Don Gardner, an anthropologist who recently conducted fieldwork in West Miyanmin, provided valuable information, particularly on recent events. Particular communications are noted in the text. I alone am responsible for the final product.
