AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This document is excellent because of the amount of ethnographic information given in the explanation of words. Only those words or definitions were chosen which seemed clearly to add material of value to the file as a whole. The work is the result of many years residence by the author as a missionary among the Tiv.
