Name

Dr. Hiroaki SATO

Studies

Sato has engaged in ecological-anthropological studies in the central African tropical rainforest since 1976. At first his work started in ex-Zaire (Democratic Republic of the Congo), focusing on the hunting and agricultural activities of the Boyela, slash-and-burn horticulturalists in the middle of the Congo Basin. Since 1987, he has conducted the anthropological field works of the Baka hunter-gatherers in Republic of the Congo and Republic of the Cameroon many times with special reference to their subsistence activities and folk medicine. At present he is studying the potential of the African tropical rainforest as a human habitat, that is, "Is it possible for human beings to live independently of agriculture in tropical rainforests?"
