About the Notes section: In those days African people were not considered really human, that's why their nudity didn't matter. It's the same thing in MGM's Tarzan movies of the 1930s, you can see some topless African women in the background in one or two of them, which of course would be considered a totally insane and impossible idea for a white actress.

I take it you haven't seen the uncut version of Tarzan, the infamous swimming scene.
Also take a gander at a few Weird Tales cover galleries sometime.

Forcing African and Pacific Islander women to cover their breasts in public was considered racist then and now.

I can remember when the Dutch had a controversy over preventing some tribes in their protectorates from mass homosexual abuse of their male children as part of their coming of age ceremony.
I can't understand how some these days think every primitive people were peaceful and admirable flower children.

I'm reminded of a poster on a history forum claiming there was no evidence of primitive tribes canniblizing white missionaries, the same week that a tribe in Fiji made a formal apology to the family of a British missionary their ancestors had killed and eaten.
Eating human flesh is something still practiced in Africa, with the flesh of albino African children sold at a premium price in markets as a cure all.

There is now good reason to believe that Cannibalism was not confined to Africa but was widespread in perhaps most human societies.
One of the reasons, not covered in these articles, was that if you don't have much meat, - in terms of severe drought for instance- a human body is a source of protein, and if that's all you've got, that's all you've got. Survival is always paramount.

Referring to Cannibalism is wrongly used to shame certain peoples or today, more commonly denied as the tendency now is [for political reasons] to portray all 'Aboriginal' peoples as blameless and perfect. Neither of which attitudes is true or unbiased.
