- W4249658509 abstract "DEPOPULATION OF PRIMITIVE COMMUNITIES.—Mr. J. H. Hutton, whose monographs on two branches of the Naga Tribes in Assam have been received with much favour by ethnologists, reviews in Man in India (vol. 2, No. 4) the work of the late Dr. Rivers on depopulation in Melanesia, in the light of his experiences in Assam. He notes that, as in the case of the Kava of Melanesia, the influence of missionary societies in Assam, who discourage the use of the mild rice beer, is driving their converts to opium. The appearance of consumption in recent years in the Naga hills may be attributed to the wearing of European clothes, which is also responsible for the spread of dysentery, itch, and yaws. The absolute prohibition of head-hunting has led to serious interference with all sorts of dependent activities, and ultimately leads to a total lack of interest in life, and so to the limitation of families, or even to the total refusal to procreate children. These facts, which corroborate the conclusions of Mr. Henry Balfour in the presidential address recently delivered before the Folklore Society, deserve the serious attention of all those who are responsible for the welfare of primitive societies." @default.
