Evans-Pritchard / Baka reference

edit

I just edited the reference to Evans-Pritchard to correct the spelling, and make it a link to the Wiki page on him.

But I am also highly dubious of the claim that Evans-Pritchard "spent a significant time in Maridi studying the behavioral patterns of the Baka people". The cited Pitt Rivers Museum collection does have three physical artifacts that are supposedly Baka and from Maridi; however the photo collection with over 2,000 frames has many of Zande and Nuer subjects, along with Anuak, Bongo, Jur, Ndogo, Beli, but not a single Baka photo, nor any claiming to be from the Maridi area.

Evans-Pritchard's published works include noted ones on Zande and Nuer subjects, but again none focusing on Baka.

I am curious where this assertion comes from; the text first appears on 20 June 2023‎ from an IP-address user.

It really should be removed pending some confirmation. KHP44 (talk) 18:27, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
