:-) Uatakassi has *no* terms for skin color, but plenty of terms (unknown as of yet :-() for *feather* colors. *G* And since some are monocolored and others two- or even three-colored, there would probably be terms for various patterns of coloring as well. However, they don't make as big a deal over feather color as we do over skin color, since it's not very well-correlated to ethnicity. Also, in general, ancestry is less important than culture. The Kassi are superior not because of their blood, but because of their culture and the fact that they practice the One True Faith. *G* -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
