Gunnar Landtman (1878-1940)

Quite recently I wrote that “A. M. Hocart is a very little known British anthropologist” (Korsbaek, in press), which is true. But if that is so, the British anthropologist Gunnar Landtman, born in Finland, is absolutely unknown, at least in the Spanish speaking world. And that, in spite of the fact that he is of a certain importance, at least in the anthropological universe.
