Trabalho sobre um dos temas etnográficos e etnológicos menos estudados – a antropofagia, vulgo canibalismo. O autor aborda o tema de um ponto de vista que relaciona essa prática por várias tribos africanas a crenças e costumes antigos, diferenciando-a claramente da antropofagia acidental, isto é, daquela que pelas circunstâncias – naufrágio, isolamento, etc. – leva o homem a comer carne humana. Henrique Galvão, um profundo conhecedor do continente africano, esteve em contacto com essas tribos podendo relatar com exactidão as suas práticas.
