ヤベカ
Ainu「丘陵」
Kayano gives yapeka as from the landward direction. The recorded narrative nam-archive/kawakami-minwa/22#535 separates ya peka and contrasts travel over land with atuy ka peka over the sea (1985 recording). This supports the phrase and its spacing, but does not establish 丘陵 as hills. The lexical identification remains qualified and the historical gloss is unchanged.
