Relatorio Viagem Entre Bailundo e As Terras do Mucusso (Classic Reprint) (Portuguese Edition) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book recounts the 1890 journey of a Portuguese explorer, tasked with establishing Portuguese control over the region surrounding the Mucusso River. Beginning in Bailundo, the author chronicles his interactions with the Bailundo and Ganguella peoples and paints a vivid picture of their villages, attire, agriculture, and spiritual beliefs. As he ventured deeper into the Angolan wilderness, the author meticulously noted the country's diverse geography and vegetation, and frequently comments on the ways humans have chosen to adapt to, or alter, their environment. In addition to its historical and ethnographic value, this book provides a valuable account of the different languages, cultures, and political systems that coexisted within this region at the end of the nineteenth century.
