Hmmm... more French anthropology using Yanomami case studies. Didn't the Chagnon scandal teach them anything? After reading Patrick Tierney's "Darkness in El Dorado," I'm inclined towards serious suspicion of the data on this supposedly warmongering people. Yanomami society has been so screwed up by meddlesome anthropologists of the 'Gallic school' that the group has been declared off-limits by a lot of American anthropologists.
