53. _Arolik._--A village. H. W. Averill of Bethel writes me under date
of March 3, 1927, as follows: "I am sending you some old stone pieces
that came from the Aralic River, a tributary of the lower Kuskokwim
River, that were washed up by a bend in the river from an old village
that is now 6 feet underground."

54. _Kwinak._--Eskimo village on the eastern shore of Kuskokwim
Bay, at the mouth of the Kwinak or Kanektok River, Bering Sea. So
given by Sarichef, 1826, and Tebenkof, 1849. Petrof, 1880, writes it
Quinehahamute, or, omitting the termination _mute_, meaning _people_,
it would be Quene-a-ak. (G. D. A.)
55. _Apokak._--Eskimo village on the eastern shore of Kuskokwim Bay,
at the mouth of Apoka River. According to Nelson, 1878-79, its native
name is Apokagamute; i. e., Apokak people. In the Eleventh Census,
1890, it is called Ahpokagamiut. (G. D. A.)
