Los cultos de posesion en el Uruguay: Antropologia e historia, Renzo Pi Hugarte's 1998 study from Banda Oriental in Montevideo, is the principal academic work of a founding figure of Uruguayan anthropology on possession cults in Uruguay, including Umbanda and Batuque specifically. Its strength is that it corrects the Brazil-only scope of Diana Brown's Umbanda study already in the catalogue with material specific to Uruguay. Its limit is that no stable publisher URL could be confirmed at the time of this record, a gap named here rather than guessed at.
