moreno_taro — Papuan gift-giving (1970)
- Description
Gift-giving relationships (taro exchange) among 22 households in a Papuan village of the Orokaiva, studied by E. Schwimmer, who points out how these ties define the appropriate persons to mediate the act of asking for or receiving assistance among group members. P. Hage and F. Harary (1983) used the data to illustrate a Hamiltonian cycle. The data were distributed by L. C. Freeman on his network data page at the University of California, Irvine (no longer online), from which this version was obtained via the Internet Archive.
An undirected edge (i, j) indicates a gift-giving relationship between households i and j (the source matrix is symmetric).
