Editor's epilogue. 330 $aJoannis Cornelis Verschueren (1905-1970) worked as a Roman Catholic missionary in southern Irian from 1931 until 1970. In the 1950s he wrote a number of papers on the Yéi. These papers, based on older field notes and a research trip through the area, are recapitulated in this volume. Verschueren provides genuine inside information and his data are new and authentic. The four papers in this volume create a picture of a typical lowland culture with a surprising emphasis on headhunting, an uncommon way of segregating the sexes, and a highly elaborated system of phallic symbolism. Topics discussed in this volume are territorial, clan and moiety organization; kinship, marriage and conjugal life; the founding myths of Yéi-nan ritual and other rituals; initiation; sickness and healing; death, burial and mortuary feasts; other ceremonies. 410 0$aVerhandelingen van het Koninklijk Instituut voor Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde$v99. 606 $aYei (New Guinean people) 606 $aYei (New Guinean people)$2fast 610 $aindonesia 610 $aCanoe 610 $aHeadhunting 610 $aKava 610 $aKupe 610 $aMarind people 610 $aMedicine man 610 $aSago 610 $aTaan (music) 610 $aTotem 615 0$aYei (New Guinean people) 615 7$aYei (New Guinean people) 676 $a306.09953 700 $aBaal$b Jan van$0484057 702 $aBaal van$b J$4auth 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156500503321 996 $aJan Verschueren's description of Yéi-nan culture$91193058 997 $aUNINA
