The editor wants definitions called out as boldface = page locators, but many of the definitions occur in a range of pages. = Which of these looks better:
scarification, 243, = 243-246
or scarification, 243-246
or even, = scarification, 243-246, 245

Secondly, the name Anton = Kerner von Marilaun is referred to in the text as Kerner. How = should it be inverted in the index:
Kerner, Anton, von = Marilaun
or Kerner von Marilaun, Anton = ?

Thanks.
