Kinship Organizations And Group Marriage In Australia (1906)

Kinship Organizations And Group Marriage In Australia is a comprehensive study of the social and cultural practices of indigenous Australian tribes conducted by anthropologist Northcote Whitridge Thomas in 1906. The book provides a detailed analysis of the complex kinship systems and group marriage practices of various tribes, including the Kamilaroi, Kurnai, and Dieri. Thomas draws on extensive fieldwork, interviews with tribal members, and historical records to offer insights into the unique social structures and customs of these communities. He also explores the impact of European colonization on indigenous Australian societies and the ways in which traditional practices have evolved over time. This book is an important contribution to the field of anthropology and provides a valuable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history and culture of Australia's indigenous peoples.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
