MAKARAKA, or IDDIO (" Cannibals ")

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 451 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LUP-MAL
MAKARAKA, or IDDIO (" Cannibals ") , a negroid
people
  of Central Africa, closely related to the powerful Azandeh or Niam-Niam race, occupying the Bahr-el-Ghazal west of Lado. They came originally from the country of the Kibas,
north
  of the Welle. Dr W.
Junker
  described them as among the most trust-worthy, industrious and intelligent
people
  of the Bahr-el-Ghazal. They are a reddish-black, with
nose
  less flat and cheek-bones less prominent than the
ordinary
  negroes, and, unlike the latter, do not extract the incisors. Their
long
  silky
hair
  is built up in the most fantastic form by means of vegetable substances. They are well-known for strength and staying
power
 .
See W.
Junker
 , Travels in Africa (189o-1892).
