Shaposhnikova, L. V. - Taina Plemeni Golubykh Gor

Moscow: Nauka, 1969. First edition; 5 1/2 x 8 1/2; pp. [2], 5-316; pictorial wraps; some rubbing to tail of spine; faint crease lines to corners; illustrated with full page color and b&w photographs and maps; very good. An interesting ethnographic study of the Toda people of Southern India. Though the population of the tribe is less than a 1000 - they have always attracted the attention of anthropologists and ethnographers with their striking unlikeness to any other culture in India and abroad. One of their more interesting traditions is the practice of fraternal polyandry - a form of marriage in which a woman takes two or more husbands at the same time - which is prohibited by many world religions including Hinduism and Islam and is illegal in most countries. Ill.: 0. 2.
