对下奥莫河谷族裔间战争的研究探讨了族裔身份与文化之间以及社会与生态之间的关系。本文首次将神话、氏族分类、族际战争等民族志信息加入到学术话语中。它还阐明了班纳人是如何建构自己的“族群”身份的：他们通过各种形式的叙事和叙述来认同自己是班纳人的一员，但这些日常活动并不能保证班纳人拥有一个独立的土地、语言和文化。研究表明，与该团体的说法相反，班纳人的身份并没有离散的统一性。Appadurai（1996）认为，地方性是一种“社会生活的现象学属性”，这可以通过将邻里描述为“实际存在的社会形式，其中地方性作为一个维度或价值被重新实现”来发现。"
Studies of interethnic warfare in the Lower Omo Valley have explored relationships between ethnic identity and culture and between society and ecology. This paper is the first to add eth nographic information about myth, clan classification, and interethnic warfare among the Banna to academic discourse. It also clarifies how Banna people construct their "ethnic" identity: they identify themselves as members of the Banna through a various forms of recognitipn and narra tives, but these everyday activities do not guarantee a discrete Banna land, language, and culture. Research has revealed that, contrary to the group's assertion, Banna identity has no discrete unity. Appadurai (1996) theorized that locality is a "phenomenological property of social life," which might be discovered through description of neighborhoods as "the actually existing social forms in which locality, as a dimension or value, is variably realized."
