Mythology of the San Bushmen of Southern Africa gives an in-depth account of San mythology and its connections to the religion, social organization, and ecological adaptations of this erstwhile hunting-gathering people. The mythology and cosmology of San Bushmen posits ongoing connections and interactions between actual, experienced reality and virtual, imagined myth time. Along with conflations of human with animal and woman/wife with antelope/meat, the trickster-god figure is central to San mythology. In this book Mathias Guenther places San mythology firmly in the context of world mythology.
