TD8: TEMORI TRIBE

A Temori tribe, viewed historically or developmentally, consists of a social group existing before the development of, or outside of, states. Some theorists hold that tribes represent a stage in social evolution intermediate between bands and states. Other theorists argue that tribes developed after, and must be understood in terms of their relationship to, states. Some criticize its connotations as a way of attaching "backwardness" and the racist notion of primitive since the term "tribe" is largely used to describe non-White peoples.
