Abstract
Although central Africa's Pygmy hunter-gatherers have been drawn as an agalitarian society, there is remarkable economic inequality inside the society of Baka hunter-gatherers in southeasern Cameroon, which was led by penetration of monetary economy such as introduce of cash crop cultivation.
