far back as 543 b. C., and their Gus
toms and beliefs are thought TO have
changed but little since the stone age.
But the veddas. on report of a traveller
lately returned from the wiRis Of Cey-
Ion, are reaching the end Of this
peculiar interest. For now hardly

old-fashioned muzzle-loading guns.
and the skiliful archery for which the
veddas were notable has become a
lost art. In this Ceylon jungle few
typical veddas are left. but these are
isolated specimens. In any circum-
stances 1t has been held that the
veddas are incapable. of civilization.
But then that depends. OF course. on
what is meant by civilization.
