Gypsies from Sutherland’s “Cross-cultural Law: Gypsy Offender
The kinship system of the Gypsies is very complicated. There are no any formalized kin groups. The gypsies think of themselves of as brotherhood. This implies that anyone can fully participate in the communal rituals. They have an ideology of shared activity.
The San are well known hunters and gatherers in Africa. They inhabited the Kalahari Desert which is the harshest and inhospitable desert found in the southern part of Africa (Grecinger, 2012). They have a basic diet of meat, berries, nuts and melons. Women in the San community are responsible for helping in the food provision and taking care of the children thus giving them a say in the key decisions made in the community. Men are responsible for hunting.
