Cultural questions if anyone has answers.

[JadedDemiGod]

I am trying to work on a wetlands based culture. A society of people who live deep within a large country-sized wetlands area. I am looking for information about any cultures who have evolved or grown inside swamps, marshes, etc.

Or general advice. Books (fantasy driven or normal anthropology books), articles, websites, etc.

Thank you for any help.

Don't have specific books, but some peoples you could look up:

Cajuns of Louisiana

Congolese

Nigerian tribes

Iraqi tribes (Mesopotamia = land between rivers)

Yakama, Klallam and Kalispel tribes of Washington

Natchez, Choctaw and Chickasaw tribes of Mississipi

Hmong people of Vietnam

Finns

Latvians

And I forgot the ancient Egyptians whose Lower Kingdom was built on a river delta. And the ancient Babylonians.

Also explore the Nanyue Kingdom of China which was organized around Gangzhou.
