Allofams:
1.0 The Body > 1.2 Head and Face > 1.2.1 Head/Headed

This root seems quite distinct from #359 tuk ⪤ twak. It occurs frequently as the second element in Loloish compounds. Note that the Jingpho form previously transcribed as du is inaccurate: the correct form is dùʔ, so that it is correctly assigned to #359.
