The Yuma kinship terms have been listed and their structure analyzed.
Comment has been made on certain morphological features of the kinship terms.
From the analysis of the usage pattern of male and female terms the suggestion has been derived that a relatively simple conceptual system underlies the relatively complex terminological system.
Some congruence has been shown between the affinal kinship terminology, the naming practices, and the probable former local group organization.
