Description

Explore a detailed ethnographic study of the Chiga people in this scholarly work from the African Ethnographic Studies of the 20th Century series. Originally published in 1957, this volume provides a deep look at a Bantu tribe from Western Uganda. The Chiga are unique among neighboring East African cultures because they are an independent farming people without a tribal organization or a caste system. This makes them a significant subject for comparative and historical research. This book offers a comprehensive look at the foundations of Chiga life. Readers will find detailed accounts of their social systems, indigenous legal procedures, and land and property rights. The text also covers their domestic life, economic activities, and religious beliefs. A specific focus is placed on the powerful Nyabingi cult, which remained a major force until its suppression by the British. This volume is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in anthropology, sociology, and the history of African social structures.
