Birds, Indigenous Peoples, Culture and Society - By Sonia Tidemann and Andrew Gosler

Birds have appeared on artworks, religious relics, tattoos, flags and military insignia for thousands of years. This book has contributions from anthropologists, linguists, biologists, historians, geographers, curators, sociologists and indigenous scholars. This is a scholarly work, and isn't light reading, but for anyone with a deep interest in the role that birds have, and do, play in cultures across the world, such as the Maya, Maori, Aboriginals, Polynesians and many many more.
