Item description from seller

A comprehensive catalogue of ethnicities found in three geographical entities of Madagascar, Andaman-Nicobar Islands and Indonesian archipelago.

For each group details are provided as known and relevant, and can include identification, linguistic affiliation, history and cultural relations, settlement patterns and housing, economy, kin groups, marriage and family, political and social organizations, and religion. An encyclopedic reference on the subject peoples. Slight spotting on page fore-edges; otherwise pristine inside and out. viii, 236 pp., 10 b&w maps, bibliography, index. Size: 29 x 23 cm.
