Custodial history

Scope and content

File consists of Jerome Barkow's paper The Hausa, and documents relating to it. The paper centers around analyzing and studying the Hausa people, and what their culture, norms and beliefs are. Other items consist of correspondence between Richard V. Weekes and Barkow, with Weekes inviting Barkow to contribute an entry for the book Ethnographic Survey of the Muslim World, specifically on the Hausa of West Africa, on the comments made on the paper by Weekes, and Barkow's response to those comments, and declining the chance to write about the Fulani people; and a letter to Barkow from A. H. M. Kirk-Greene, stating that, to Barkow's question, nobody knows how many Hausa there are in Western Africa in 1976, with the BBC guessing the number is 25 million.
