""Societies of the Kiowa"" is a book written by Robert Harry Lowie in 1916. The book provides a detailed account of the social organization and customs of the Kiowa people, a Native American tribe that lived in the Great Plains region of the United States. Lowie's work is based on extensive field research and firsthand observations of the Kiowa people, and it offers a comprehensive analysis of their complex social structure, including their kinship system, political organization, and religious beliefs. The book also explores the role of secret societies in Kiowa culture, which were responsible for maintaining order and enforcing social norms. Overall, ""Societies of the Kiowa"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American culture and history, as well as those studying anthropology and sociology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
