| Summary |
"Negritos of Zambales" by William Allan Reed is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This ethnographic report presents a detailed study of the Negrito population in Zambales Province in the Philippines, covering various aspects of their distribution, culture, physical features, and social life. The book focuses on the Negritos, an indigenous group, exploring their marginalized existence and interactions with other populations. The opening of the work introduces the context of scientific research and documentation during 1904, highlighting letters of transmittal and submission related to an ethnological survey. It establishes that Reed’s study was based on two months of fieldwork in 1903, where he and a photographer interacted with over a thousand Negritos. It outlines the geographical and historical background of the Zambales region before delving into the characteristics, customs, and societal structure of the Negritos, setting the stage for a comprehensive examination of this unique group.
