What reading level is Early Civilization An Introduction to Anthropology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Among the Tlingit the moieties have one important ceremonial function, as the potlatches are here always given between the moieties, never in the same moiety. There is also, as among the Iroquois, reciprocal burial. But the principal function of the Northwest moieties is the control of marriage : they are rigorously exogamous.
In central Australia the moieties are connected with in- termarriage, insofar as no unions are permitted within a phratry. They also figure as a basis of local grouping i...n camping. In preparaiton for the intichiuma ceremonies members of the opposite phratry announce the time at which a ceremonial series is to be performed; and, as part of the ceremonial routine itself, members of the opposite phratry are charged with the laborious task of painting the dancers and adorning them with bird down.
Not only are reciprocal functions common in moieties, but the dual division of the tribe seems to stimulate among the natives a tendency to emphasize contrasts with reference to the two moieties.
