Between 2012 and 2015, I published four long articles or short monographs (Denham 2012, 2013, 2014a, 2015a) in Mathematical Anthropology and Cultural Theory concerning kinship and related topics among the Alyawarra speaking people of Central Australia in 1971-72. They contained a great deal of data and had a total length of 400 pages plus comments and replies. The article that you are reading now is a 28-page overview of that four item set. It can serve as an introduction for people who are new to my work and want a brief introduction to my data and methods, or as a summary for those who are familiar with my work and want to see new interconnections that emerged after the separate items and accompanying comments were published. The paper deals broadly with methods, data, theory and findings.
