WHAT DOES TRIBESMAN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Tribe

A tribe is viewed, historically or developmentally, as a social group existing before the development of, or outside of, states. Many people used the term tribal society to refer to societies organized largely on the basis of social, especially familial, descent groups. A customary tribe in these terms is a face-to-face community, relatively bound by kinship relations, reciprocal exchange and strong ties to place. 'Tribe' is a contested term due to its roots in colonialism. The word has no shared referent, whether in political form, kinship relations, or shared culture. Some argue that it conveys a negative connotation of a timeless unchanging past. To avoid these implications, some have chosen to use the terms 'ethnic group', or nation instead. In some places, such as North America and India, tribes are polities that have been granted legal recognition and limited autonomy by the state.
