Talk:Nage people

And just who's primitive here?
I don't know why we still get this type of condescending "anthropological" (i.e. imperialist) reference to smaller nations in the world; but it would be better if the Nage were referred-to as a people -- which they are -- and their so-called "primitiveness" instead spoken-of as pre- something-or-other. Or even stone-age. Nothing condescending about that -- if true. No reference is made here to how they actually live their lives today.

And I wouldn't doubt that this "tribe" used to have a much larger national territory at some time in the past, before the growth of empires, for that matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pazouzou (talk • contribs) 07:15, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
