In "Two Crows Denies It," R. H. Barnes undertakes an ambitious
historical analysis of anthropological scholarship about Omaha
kinship systems. His groundbreaking work offers a critique of this
established scholarship, including the work of Levi-Strauss,
Dorsey, and Fletcher. In comparing the primary and secondary
accounts of Omaha descent, relationship, and naming systems, Barnes
reveals the dissonance between the reality of Omaha society and the
scholarship that has formed around it. Not only does he put forth a
new and more realistic interpretation of Omaha sociology
specifically, but in so doing he provides a reinterpretation of an
aspect of anthropological theory. This edition includes a new
introduction by Raymond J. DeMallie.
