The point or place described on the Delaware (now Bombay Hook) was the end of the island, knowm on old maps as "Deep Point," and the "Hook" was the bend in the currents around it forming the marshy inlet-bay on the southwest connecting with a marshy channel or stream, and the latter on the north with a small stream by which the island was constituted. Considered from the standpoint of an Algonquian generic term, the rule is undisputed that the name must have described a feature which existed in common at the time of its application, on the Delaware and on Long Island, and it only remains to determine what that feature was. Obviously the name itself solves the problem. In whatever form it is met it is the East Indian Canarese (English Ca7i'a-rese) pure and simple, and obviously employed as a substitute for the Algonquian term written Ganaivese, etc., of the same meaning. In the "History of New Sweden" (Proc. N. Y. Hist. Soc, 2d Ser. v. i.), the locative on the Delaware is described: "From Christina Creek to Canarose or Bambo Hook." In "Century Dictionary" Bambo is explained : "From the native East Indian name, Malay and Java bambii, Canarese banhii or bonwu." Dr. Brinton translated Ganawese from Guneu (Del.), "Long," but did not add that the sufifix -- zvese, or as Roger Williams wrote it, qucse, means "Little, small," the combination describing Bambo grasses, i. e. "long, small" grasses, which, in some cases reach the growth of trees, but on Long Island and on the Delaware only from long marsh grasses to reeds, as primarily in and around Jamaica Bay and Gouwanus Bay, on Reed Island, etc. True, Ganawese would describe anything that was " long, small," but obviously here the objective product.
