Description

Explore the stone-based technologies and traditions of the Dani people in this academic study from Texas A&M University Press. Based on the fieldwork of O. W. "Bud" Hampton between 1982 and 1983, this book provides a deep look into the Highlands of Irian Jaya. Through twelve years of observation, Hampton documents how stone tools and objects function within their traditional contexts. This volume offers a complete cultural inventory of both secular and sacred stones. Readers will learn about the development and use of stone tool assemblages, ranging from utilitarian tools to stones used for profane and sacred purposes. It is a significant resource for those studying indigenous cultures and the cultural meaning of material objects in remote societies.
