The oaks             have alternate leaves, often variously lobed, and             staminate flowers in catkins. The fruit is a smooth nut,             called an {acorn}, which is more or less inclosed in a             scaly involucre called the cup or cupule. There are now             recognized about three hundred species, of which nearly             fifty occur in the United States, the rest in Europe,             Asia, and the other parts of North America, a very few             barely reaching the northern parts of South America and             Africa.

Quichuan \Qui"chuan\, a.       Designating, or pertaining to, a linguistic stock of South       American Indians, including the majority of the civilized       tribes of the ancient Peruvian Empire with some wild tribes       never subjugated by the Incas.

Nevertheless, they represent       one of the highest of native American civilizations,       characterized by agricultural, military, and administrative       skill rather than by science or literature, although they       were adept potters, weavers, and goldsmiths, and preserved by       the aid of the mnemonic quipu a body of legendary lore in       part written down since the introduction of writing.
