"A
...
people
...
whose
...
material
...
culture
...
is
...
as
...
simple
...
as
...
that
...
of
...
the
...
Nuer
...
are
...
highly
...
dependent
...
on
...
their
...
environment.
...
They
...
are
...
pre-eminently
...
pastoral,
...
though
...
they
...
grow
...
more
...
millet
...
and
...
maize
...
than
...
is
...
commonly
...
supposed.
...
Some

tribes
...
cultivate

more

and

some

less,

according

to

conditions

soil

and

and
...
their

wealth

in

all

alike

regard

horticulture

as

toil

forced

on

them

by

poverty

of

stock,
...
for
...
at

heart
...
they
...
are
...
herdsmen,
...
and
...
the
...
only
...
labour
...
in
...
which
...
they
...
delight
...
is
...
care
...
of
...
cattle.
...
They
...
not
...
only
...
depend
...
on
...
cattle
...
for
...
many
...
of
...
life's
...
necessities
...
but
...
they
...
have
...
the
...
herdsman's
...
outlook
...
on
...
the
...
world.
...
Cattle
...
are
...
their
...
dearest
...
posession
...
and
...
they
...
gladly
...
risk
...
their
...
lives
...
to
...
defend
...
their
...
herds
...
or
...
to
...
pillage
...
those
...
of
...
their
...
neighbours.
...
Most
...
of
...
their
...
social
...
activities

concern
...
cattle

and

cherchez

can

be

who

desire

to

understand

Nuer

behaviour."
