A remarkable feature of the Australian social organiza- tion is that divisions of one tribe have their recognized equivalents in other tribes, whose languages, including the names for the tribal divisions, are quite different. A native who travelled far and wide through Australia stated that " he was furnished with temporary wives by the various tribes with whom he sojourned in his travels ; that his right to these women was recognized as a matter of course ; and that he could always ascertain whether they belonged to the division into which he could legally marry, ' though the places were 1000 miles apart, and the langu- ages quite different.' " 2 Again, it is said that " in cases of distant tribes it can be shown that the class divisions cor- respond with each other, as for instance in the classes of the Flinders river and Mitchell river tribes ; and these tribes are separated by 400 miles of country, and by many intervening tribes.
