AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This work attempts to touch on all the major areas -- physical, social, religious -- of the culture of the affiliated tribes of the central Bartose Plain, particularly those within the ecology of the flooding Zambezi River. Turner summarizes data that come primarily from the writings of Gluckman, Strike, and Jalla. The strongest section concerns the religious and magical beliefs.
