Zusammenfassung: | The Kwoma Collection consists of several documents, all of them in English, covering social and cultural information circa 1930s -1980s. The basic sources to consult are by John Whiting, consisting of an ethnographic account and a published field work journal. Together, these provide a comprehensive account of Kwoma society and culture, with particular reference to socialization, family life, economic activities and material culture, as observed in 1936-1937. The remaining documents compliment Whiting by providing additional information on sex and gender relations, kinship regulation of sex and marriage, and ceremonial arts and community rituals |
