Abstract

Sauter et al. (1) begin with the premise that the Himba with whom they worked in Kaokoland, northwestern Namibia, lived in isolation “with no exposure to other cultural groups through media or personal contact.” The authors have not adequately situated their informants in a historical or anthropological context. Had they done so, they would have seen how unlikely it is that the people with whom they worked had “not been exposed to the affective signals of individuals from cultural groups other than their own” (1).
