IV. D5. xxxvr. OF THE SUDAN 339
XXIX The 'On who was mentioned above was '6n son of Shaik, and he had three sons, Zayn el Din and Kanud (Katud ?) and 'Amr,
[whose descendants were] surnamed KanOdab (Katudab?) and
'Amrab and ZayneldInab and Hasanab ; and the best known tribal names are '6nia and Hasanab.
XXX Such descendants of el Hag Muhammad ibn Shaik, '6n's full- brother, as are to be found to-day are the stock of Yusef, Manatab and Kutab and Mahmudab : these were the sons of his own begetting. But the allies (^'3-oJO who are mixed with them are for the most part SowAKiRA and Shellalil and others.
XXXI The mother of Sowar ibn Shaik was one of the Tungur of Darfur. He had no full-brother. He had six sons, Hamdulla and Tamalayk and Nimr and 'Aid and Wasif and Gadat.
XXXII The sons of Hamdulla are 'Akudab and Aminab, of Tama-
layk Tamalayk, of Nimr 'Anaynab and Hamartudab, of 'Aid 'AiDAB, and of Wasif Zilaytab.
XXXIII The sons of Muhammad Kadunk^ ibn Shaik are the Kadunkab^, and these fall into three divisions, Banadika, SubhAb and 'Aynab (?)^.
The PL\DUNKAB^ used to be the most numerous of the Shaikia, but they were continually intermarrying [with others], like every [other] tribe with a few rare exceptions.
XXXIV Muhammad "the younger" ibn Shaik was full-brother of Muhammad Kadunk^, and was ancestor of the 'Adlanab, but the ancestresses of this section were all daughters of the Fung, for they lived close to the latter at Merawi. And they acquired the charac-
teristics of the Fung; for the latter in those days were the ruling
power and gave to the 'Adlanab a share of their dominion as being the children of their daughters. Thus you see the 'Adlanab have lost their brown complexion and their natural love of the open air.
XXXV Howwash ibn Shaik had no full-brother. He was ancestor of the Howwashab, and the ancestresses of these were nomad Arabs. They used to marry whatever they found, good or bad, among the races of mankind, and in consequence their natures are invariably evil.
XXXVI Nafa'a ibn Shaik was ancestor of the Nafa'ab. He had no full-brother.
