Wikipedia description:
Hans Cory OBE (born Hans Koritschoner; 18 March 1889 – 24 April 1962) was a self-taught British social anthropologist of Austrian descent, farmer and sociologist with a special interest in traditional lifestyles of ethnic groups in former Tanganyika, now Tanzania. Little is known about his childhood and youth in Vienna as well as about his life before the First World War in colonial German East Africa. Born in Vienna, Austria, and having lived most of his adult life in Tanganyika, he died at age 73 in Dar es Salaam. His publications on a wide range of ethnographic subjects constitute an important record of the history of Tanganyika.
