Description

Routledge proudly reissues this landmark ethnographic series in partnership with the International African Institute. Originally published between 1950 and 1977, this comprehensive volume examines the Bira people and neighbouring populations of Central Africa and the Belgian Congo. The survey provides concise, critical analysis of ethnic groupings and social conditions across the region, covering physical environment, linguistic data, demography, history and traditions of origin, nomenclature and grouping. Cultural features including religion, witchcraft, birth practices, initiation ceremonies and burial customs are thoroughly documented. The work also addresses social and political organisation, kinship structures, and governance systems. This part II edition represents an essential reference for scholars, anthropologists and researchers studying Central African peoples, their heritage and social frameworks.
