Description

Originally published in 1953, this foundational ethnographic study examines the Sukuma people, Tanzania's largest ethnic group, with detailed analysis of land resources, tenure systems, and territorial use in Sukumaland. The work provides comprehensive insight into Sukuma social structure, organisational hierarchies, hereditary and elected authorities, and the religious significance of landholding and cattle ownership. Enriched with numerous diagrams and maps throughout, the book serves as an essential reference for understanding traditional African land systems and social organisation. This volume is part of the African Ethnographic Studies of the 20th Century series and remains a critical resource for anthropologists, historians, and scholars studying East African societies and indigenous land management practices.
