Pedro Ceinos, a long-time resident of Kunming, Yunnan, informs me that his work on matriarchy in China has just been published in Italian, Il Matriarcato in Cina: Madri, Regine, Dee e Sciamane.
Topics include matriarchy in ancient China, matriarchy among the Tibeto-Burman peoples, and matriarchy among the Turkic and Mongolic peoples.
Ceinos is also a prolific author of Spanish and English books introducing ethnicities and unique cultures of southwestern China, including:
- El Camino al Nirvana – El pilar dharani de Kunming
- Yunnan: Guía Cultural
- La creación del mundo y otros mitos de los Wa
- The Creation of the World, the Deluge, and other Naxi myths
