几年前，作者是一位研究婴儿神经症的精神分析学家，他有幸陪同人类学家H。斯卡德·梅基尔到平原上的一个苏族保留地，和A. 1.这两个部落的原始条件和文化体系有着惊人的差异。苏族人是好战的游牧民族，他们以松散的组织形式在中北平原上游荡，追逐”成群的布法罗”。他们的经济生活被一种信念所支配，即”你不能把它带走”--无论是在这里还是那里。他们的财产不多，而且很容易转手。慷慨和坚韧是他们的主要美德。另一方面，尤罗克人生活在一个狭窄的、树木茂密的河谷里，河谷陡峭地延伸到太平洋。他们是和平的和久坐不动的，收集橡子，钓鱼，并为每年的鲑鱼奇迹做好精神上的准备，当大量的鱼进入他们的河流并上升时，就像海洋之外的礼物一样。他们拥有沿着的真实的地产，认为这是一种美德，可以储存财富，在他们的小世界里，每一件有名的物品都有货币价值。
Some years ago the writer, a psychoanalyst then studying infantile neuroses, had the double good fortune of accompanying the anthropologist H. Scudder Mekeel to a Sioux reservation on the Plains, and of visiting with A. 1. Kroeber some Yurok Indians on the Pacific coast.The original conditions and cultural systems of these two tribes differed strikingly. The Sioux were belligerent nomads, roaming the North Central plains in loosely organized groups, pursuing" darkmasses of buffalo". Their economic life was dominated by the conviction that" you can't take it with you"-either here or there. Their possessions were few and changed hands readily. Generosity and fortitude were their cardinal virtues. The Yurok, on the other hand, lived in a narrow, densely wooded river valley which steeply descends into the Pacific. They were peaceful and sedentary, gathering acorns, fishing, and preparing themselves spiritually for the annual miracle of the salmon run, when an abundance of fish enters and ascends their river, coming like a gift from nowhere beyond the ocean. They owned real estate along the river, considered that to be virtuous which led to the storage of wealth, and gave monetary value to every named item in their small world.
