Power is distributed and maintained in Ehing culture by the concept of Odieng ("hatchet”), which as a spirit acts upon human beings much as an ax does upon a tree. Marc Schloss's ethnography of the Ehing is a study of the meaning of Odieng's power, explaining why its rules are so essential to the Ehing way of life.
