When first published in 1933, this monograph shed new light on the life of the Valenge women of Portuguese East Africa.

The volume collects a large number of native texts, rituals and formulae, thereby converting oral tradition into material of great value not only to students of Africcan ethnography but also to anthropologists more widely.
