content: This subseries contains Reining's research and writings on the Haya. Materials span from her early dissertation work in the 1950s on Haya agrarian systems in Bukoba to her 1993 research on environmental consequences of population growth and HIV/AIDS among the Haya. Reining had been assigned to work among the Haya in Tanzania (then known as Tanganyika) in the 1950s as a Fellow of the East African Institute of Social Research (E.A.I.S.R.), Makarere College, Kampala, Uganda. This subseries consequently also contains materials relating to E.A.I.S.R., including correspondence with Audrey Richards, who was director of the institute. Also represented is her survey work in Buhaya and Buganda on STDs and fertility for the East African Medical Survey. Materials in this subseries include informant interviews, genealogies, and questionnaires that she collected on households/families in entire villages. The surveys of maternity history for the East African Medical Survey are restricted as they contain personal medical history. Also in this subseries are satellite imagery, photographs, her dissertation, drafts of her unpublished manuscript "Haya Kinship," and her Haya publications. This subseries is unarranged.

For additional Haya-related materials, see Series 1. Correspondence, Series 12. Photographs, and Series 11. Maps. For Reining's consultancy work in Tanzania, see also Series 4. Professional Activities.
