child is born, this name is
discarded and another given.
Sex does not play a role
in naming a child, so a new
conner to an Eskimo village
may expect to meet a man
when told John" is coming
and wind up with a beauti-
full woman instead. Louise"
may well turn out to be d
brawny male.
With all the talk about
hitting children going the
current rounds, Eskimos are
most reluctant to punish a
child physically. The reason:
Since a child is always
named after a grandparent,
the Eskimo believes he is
beating his own parent If he
strikes a child.
Also, when someone dies
his or her name is never
mentioned until a child has
been named after the dead
person. Then the taboo is
