[45] “Among the Wahuma women occupy a higher position than among the
negroes, and are watched carefully by their men. This makes mixed
marriages difficult. The mass of the Waganda even to-day would not
have remained a genuine negro tribe ‘of dark chocolate colored skin
and short wool hair’ were it not that the two peoples are strictly
opposed to one another as peasants and herdsmen, rulers and subjects,
as despised and honored, in spite of the relations entered into among
the upper classes. In this peculiar position, they represent a typical
phenomenon, which is found repeated at many other points.”--Ratzel, l.
