Bushmen as Mediators in Nguni Cosmology

Les AA. montrent l'influence des chasseurs-cueilleurs bochiman sur la culture et la cosmologie nguni (Afrique du Sud). La structure symbolique et la tradition orale expliquent que les premiers etaient consideres par les seconds comme des mediateurs entre la nature et la culture. Les objets, la hutte de consultation et les methodes de divination des devins nguni ressemblent a ceux des Bochimans. L'art rupestre bochiman est associe a la fois a des guerisons et a des manifestations diaboliques
