  • Father's Water equals Mother's Milk

    Open AccessDorothy Ayers Counts, David Reese CountsARTICLEMankind2010Citada por: 7Referencias: 7

    This paper describes the traditional and modern ideology of conception and parenting among the Kaliai of West New Britain Province, Papua New Guinea. A pervasive set of beliefs hinges on male primacy and includes the assignment of the principal role in conception to the male.

The good death comes with the acquiescenc…
