520 a| This collection about the Kpelle consists of 10 documents, covering a variety of cultural information, from the 1910s to the 1980s. German ethnologist Diedrich H. Westermann describes Kpelle environment, economy, language, family, social organization, religion and arts as observed in 1914-1915. His work is the oldest and by far the largest in the collection, though Gibbs provides a more general social and cultural summary of Kpelle based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 1957-1958. The remaining 8 documents are results of research concerned with specific issues and the focus of most of these studies was on rural Kpelle communities in Liberia. Kpelle communities found in cities (e.g., Monorovia) and outside Liberia (e.g., Kpelle of Guinea or Guerzé) are not covered. The Kpelle are the largest ethnic group in the West African nation of Liberia and a significant group in neighboring Guinea.;
