Zusammenfassung:The Ndyuka live in the northern extension of the Amazonian rain forest in the Marowijne (Maroni) river basin which is shared by the Republic of Suriname and French Guiana. The heartland of Ndyuka territory is considered to be the lower part of the Tapanahoni River, a tributary of the Marowijne. The Ndyuka are one of six Maroon (or Bush Negro) groups in Suriname. Maroons are the descendants of rebel African slaves who succeeded in building independent communities in the Americas. This file contains 16 documents, which mostly cover topics on religion, law, and cultural change. The major works are Hurault's ethnography of the Boni from the 1940s and 1950s, van Velzen's history of Ndyuka religious movements and cults, Bilby's examination of culture change and identity in five Aluku communities, and Lenoir's work on Paramaccan religion. Other topics covered in this file include Ndyuka manners, possession cults during Suriname's civil war, leadership, witchcraft, law and sanctions, kinship and social organization, resistance and acculturation, classificatory kinship and authority, food cultivation and preparation, and a comparative demographic study of the Boni and Oyana Indians
