Who was Maria Czaplicka?

Maria Antonina Czaplicka, also referred to as Marya Antonina Czaplicka and Marie Antoinette Czaplicka, was a Polish cultural anthropologist who is best known for her ethnography of Siberian shamanism. Czaplicka's research survives in three major works: her studies in Aboriginal Siberia; a travelogue published as My Siberian Year; and a set of lectures published as The Turks of Central Asia.
