INDIAN TABOOS OF PAST LISTED Berkeley. Cui.- (U.R) Sons In law were afforded unusual protection by the Sinkyone Indians ugainst nm< hlnatlcns or mothers-in-law. according to u research pamphlet published by the University of California The last full-blooded male member of the Sinkyone tribe having died in 1929 the university has uni dertaken to establish and preserve la complete history of the customs and beliefs of the tribe. What remains of the original Sinkyone tribe now live in southern Humboldt and northwestern Mendocino counties in California. They are so intermixed, however, . with other tribes that their cus- | toms and beliefs are rapidly dying out. Direct Speech Taboo The Sinkyont-s never permitted a mother-in-law to address her son-in-law except through the Intermediary of a third person. Likewise when the mother-in-law had occasion to pass her son-in-law. she was required to cover her face with her buckskkin blanket. As regards the father-in-law, the customs were somewhat modified. He and his daughter-in-law were permitted to address each other I directly, provided they did so in a serious manner and with a suffl- ’ cient degree of slowness to em-: phasize the solemnity of the occasion. One of the other taboos of the tribe prevented brothers and sis-| ters from addressing each other | directly unless it was strictly necessary. Even on those occasions they were required to speak slow-, ly and sriously. Laughter or jokes I were never permitted. Birth Held Awesome Another requirement of the tribe : provided that every good Sinkyone | remain quit t in speech and manner for five days after the birth of I a child. Any departure brought I bad luck. Only men -were considered'
