Viac o knihe
The book examines the Duna people's adaptation of their rituals and myths in response to external influences such as government, Christianity, and economic development from mining and oil prospecting. Through fieldwork conducted between 1991 and 1999, along with historical sources, the authors present detailed ethnographic insights into the Duna's cultural practices, including those that have been abandoned. This work contributes significantly to discussions on agency and cultural identity among indigenous communities navigating social and political transformations.
