Notes on the Wanyoro Tribe of Central Africa
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2014
Extract
The paper which I have the honour of presenting to you to-night is similar in construction to those I have previously brought under your notice on the For, Madi, and Waganda tribes.
As in former papers, I have written from notes of my own observations made when in the country and from information supplied me by people of the tribe. This time, however, in order to complete the description of the people, I have had recourse to the works published by Sir Samuel Baker, Dr Emin Pasha, Capt. Casati, and the late Dr W. Junker, and I have to acknowledge my indebtedness to these authors for information gleaned from their pages.

note * page 149 I have omitted a detailed description of brewing, as it does not differ from that which obtains in “Uganda. See Proceedings of the Royal Society, vol. xiii. pp. 717 to 718. Each family brews its own liquor, but any which is in excess of their requirements is sold in the public markets.
