Note 587 — Chapter VI · [168] DISCUSSION OF KINSHIP
Reading edition
It may be remembered here that this is not in contradiction with the passage in M. A. von Gennep's work, Mythes and Légendes d'Australie, p. lxiii, implying that there is social but not physiological consanguinity between father and child in the Central Australian tribes. The difference in terminology is explained above, p. 178, footnote 1, and reasons are given explaining why I did not adopt M. A. von Gennep's terminology, although I completely share his views.
