Description

Explore the history and biology of the forest foragers in the Congo Basin with this comprehensive study from Routledge. The groups known as Pygmies represent the largest and most diverse collection of active hunter-gatherers left in the world. This book provides a unified look at the at least fifteen different ethno-linguistic groups that make up a population of 250,000 to 350,000 individuals. For decades, researchers from France, Japan, America, and Britain have studied these communities. However, much of that information has been scattered across different national research groups and academic sources. This work brings that accumulated knowledge together, offering a clear view of the cultures and histories of these unique populations. It is an essential resource for those interested in anthropology, sociology, and the diverse human histories of the African continent.
