Basso, is an interdisciplinary anthology examining the culture, society, and language of Carib-speaking indigenous tribes of South America. Drawing on contributions from anthropologists and linguists, the book covers topics such as Carib linguistic studies, kinship systems, shamanism, dietary practices, mythology, and village formation. The contributors provide detailed ethnographic studies, conceptual analyses, and comparative frameworks to explore the symbolic, social, and adaptive strategies of various Carib groups. It serves as a significant resource for scholars and students in anthropology, linguistics, and indigenous studies, offering insights into an underrepresented area of South American research.Generated by AI.Anthropological PapersCarib IndiansSociologyCarib Indians.Sociology.980/.004/98Basso Ellen B.Basso Ellen B.1942-1768699MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910883700803321Carib-Speaking Indians4231560UNINA
