Westermarck was one of the finest ethnographers of Morocco, despite the prejudices of his time and his preferences for the local, not the great traditions of Islamic ritual. However, in dealing with the question of animal sacrifice he had concentrated on its role within the context of the immolation of a sheep in the ‘Ayd l‐Kbir, and thereby overlooked its role in the local contexts of shame compulsion and covenant amongst Rifian and wider Imazighen tribes in Morocco
