1. Dan Martin Dictionary

Discussion by Laufer, Kleinere Schriften I 68-69, giving a history of the very strange European idea that Tibetans are a coprophagous people. He traces the first report of this back to the 17th cent. work by Köppen, Die lamaische Hierarchie, p. 348. One might also refer to Capt. John G. Bourke (an American), Scatalogic Rites of All Nations: A Dissertation upon the Employment of Excrementitious Remedial Agents in Religion, Therapeutics, Divination, Witchcraft, Love-Philtres, etc., in All Parts of the Globe, W.H. Lowdermilk & Co. (Washington 1891); from its many citations one may see the continuity of this particularly nasty (but amazingly persistent) 'image' of Tibetan religiosity.
