Abstract
IN this small book or enlarged pamphlet, Mr. R. E. Dennett recurs to his theories regarding formulae, religious categories, and transcendental symbolism which he has believed himself able to trace in the employment of prefixes and word roots, more especially amongst the Bavili, a Congolese tribe of the Loango coast, and also in a lesser degree amongst the Yoruba and Bini peoples of the Niger Delta.
