The Kadus of Burma
The pepole distinguished by the name of Kade, because they speak a language differing form those of their neighbours, live mostly in the Katha district of Upper Burma, and inhabit a tract of country lying roughly between 95° E., and 24° and 24° 30′N
A Burmese Fishing Custom
XXI. The Dragon of Tagaung
Tagaung lies on the Irrawaddy River 124 miles north of Mandalay in lat. 23° 30′, long. 96° 2′, and is regarded by the Burmese generally as their most ancient capital. There are remains of other cities in the neighbourhood, and to at least one of these, Tonngè, local tradition assigns a still greater antiquity
XIII. The Lady of the Weir
The Kyauksè district is at once the smallest and the richest in Upper Burma. Two rivers, the Zawgyi and the Panlaung, enter it from the mountains in the Shan States to the east, and from them spring a number of canal systems. These existed long before the British annexed the country, and tradition ascribes them to the great king Nawyӑta (Anuruddha), who reigned from 1044 to 1077 a.d
On a Method of Manufacturing Charms in Burma
Death Customs in Burma
The Taungbyon Festival, Burma
Burman Modesty
XX The use of the Roman Character for Oriental Languages
The Roman character may be used for Oriental languages in two ways: first, to represent in writing the sounds of a spoken language; and secondly, to represent the characters of a written language by another set of characters. The first process is usually called phonetic writing, the second transliteration. The second process includes the first. As this may not be clear at first sight I will endeavour to explain what transliteration is
