John Roscoe (1861 1932) was an ordained Christian missionary who
was elected a Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Society in 1912
for his contributions to the ethnographic record of Uganda. John
Roscoe joined the Uganda mission in 1891 and upon returning to
England in 1909 he began to publish the results of his
investigations into the lives of the indigenous people in Uganda.
This edition contains an ethnographic survey of six different
indigenous Bantu speaking groups living near Lake Victoria, and was
first published as part of the Cambridge Archaeological and
Ethnological Series in 1912. In this work he describes the social,
political and economic life of these groups before European
influence from colonialism, drawn from interviews with local people
in their own language. This volume contains views on ethnicity
which were acceptable at the time this volume was published.
