Seller's Description:
Very Good. ix + 280pp, 4 maps, 7 black and white plates, 3 figures, glossary, bibliography, index, Unmarked, VG in non-price clipped rubbed dustjacket. "Nyoro was the oldest of the four traditional Bantu kingdoms of Uganda, which ceased to exist when the country was declared a Republic in 1967. This book describes the tradtitional state, the way it was ruled, and the myths and rituals which sustained it. But its main concern is the nature and functioning of the Nyoro kingdom under Protectorate overrule a decade before Independence, when the author was engaged in research there as a social anthropologist. So it is essentially a study of social and political change, and the decline and fall of the ancient kingdom is a central theme of this book." L18.
