Summary | "Die Sitten der Völker, Dritter Band" by Georg Buschan is an anthropological work written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as a detailed exploration of cultural practices, rituals, beliefs, and social customs among various peoples across the globe. It likely examines topics such as marriage, birth, religion, superstitions, and death, with particular emphasis on the behaviors and customs found in different communities. The opening of the book introduces the reader to a methodical transcription of cultural practices among diverse groups, focusing initially on West Africa. It elaborates on the geographical and linguistic groupings of the different peoples, highlighting significant tribes such as the Mandingo and various Bantustämmen. It also discusses the influence of European colonialism on these cultures, reflecting on attire, decorative practices like tattooing and body modification, as well as elements of their domestic and economic lives. Additionally, it touches on religious beliefs, including the substantial role of Islam and indigenous practices, providing context to the intricate social structures and cultural nuances of the featured communities.
