- The anomalous entry: samanutuk "in der Pfanne gebacken", which seems to correspond to nothing in his text corpus, should almost certainly be shamantuk ("tostado", Arauz). The fact that Sch gives no sign or having recognised the relation to shamani, despite his tendency to see relations and "roots" everywhere, surely just means this is an oversight.
