[345] Close to Barren is the extinct crater of _Narcondam_, i.e.

_Narak-andam_ (_Narak_ = h.e.l.l), from which the _Andaman_ group may have taken its name (Sir H. Yule, _Marco Polo_). Man notes, however, that the Andamanese were not aware of the existence of Barren Island until taken past in the settlement steamer (p. 368).

[353] The Sakai have often been cla.s.sed among Negritoes, but, although undoubtedly a mixed people, their affinities appear to be pre-Dravidian.

[357] See L. Wray's paper "On the Cave Dwellers of Perak," in _Jour.

Anthrop. Inst._ 1897, p. 36 sq. This observer thinks "the earliest cave dwellers were most likely the Negritoes" (p. 47), and the great age of the deposits is shown by the fact that "in some of the caves at least 12 feet of a mixture of sh.e.l.ls, bones, and earth has been acc.u.mulated and subsequently removed again in the floors of the caves. In places two or three layers of solid stalagmite have been formed and removed, some of these layers having been five feet in thickness" (p. 45).

[367] It is not certain however that this method is known to the Semang, and it occurs among peoples who are not Negrito, such as the Kayan of Sarawak, and in other places where a Negrito element has not yet been recorded.

[368] The term pygmy is usually applied to a people whose stature does not exceed 1.5 m. (4 ft. 11 in.).
