Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a tribal society, a shaman is the spiritual leader and healer who is believed to have the power to communicate with the spirit world and perform rituals to cure illnesses. Nook's symptoms are likely caused by consuming something that is spiritually "off balance," and a shaman would be the most appropriate person to seek help from in this situation. The other options (an alienist, a berdache, and a griot) are not typically associated with spiritual or medicinal healing in tribal societies.
