Abstract

This ethnological study of the Aborigines of Western Australia follows on from previous work on W.A.geology and entomology. It discusses and compares marriage laws of North and South W.A. and Central Australia and mentions ceremonies and customs, lists vocabularies and circumcised groups among many other aspects of aboriginal life at the time.
