Comparative Arawakan Histories: Rethinking Language Family and Culture Area in Amazonia Book
This penetrating study is the first to synthesize the writings of ethnologists, historians, and anthropologists concerned with contemporary Arawakan cultures in South America and the adjacent Caribbean basin.

"Comparative Arawakan Histories" examines social structures, political hierarchies, rituals, religious movements, gender relations, and linguistic variations through historical perspectives to document sociocultural diversity across the diffused Arawakan diaspora.Read More
