- Title:
- Shümom Vocabulary
- Scope & Content:
- Leaves: 1; Pages: 2; Measurements: 28cm x 22 cm; Dates Unknown; Script: Akauku Nyiet; Condition: Poor; torn edges; Comments: This document is a repeat of APRB 18 due to confusion about organizational procedure for archiving documents by our team working in the palace which occurred early in project work. Since the reverse of the document contains an explanation of the vocabulary, it was thought that the document should be organized separately with a new file number. Be that as it may, this is the only known example of a file being repeated. APRB 18 should be treated as the primary file.
