Other Information:
In Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande (OUP 1937, page 184) E. E. Evans-Pritchard notes that 'My informant Kuagbiaru, had the same detached viewpoint [on the activities of abinza] as a result of even closer association with court life.' Kuagbiaru is noted as an important informant in several other places in this volume (see index). See also [1998.341.219]
