Abstract:On the basis of data derived from research carried out in the 1950s, the authors examine food production and food consumption among the Yellow Bushmen or !Kung San, hunter-gatherers of southern Angola. They pay attention to the Bushmen's natural environment, particularly the availability of plant and animal foods, their lifestyle and sexual division of work, food preparation and cooking utensils, and physical characteristics and nutritional status. They concludes that the Angola Yellow Bushman were well-adapted to their environment in the 1950s. Bibliogr., sum. in English and Portuguese.
