Tribe: Chimeric or Polymorphic? Peter T. Suzuki Stud. Tribes Tribals, 2(2): 113-118 (2004)

THE KHIMAIRA (or Chimera) was a monstrous beast which ravaged the countryside of Lykia in Anatolia. It was a composite creature, with the body and maned head of a lion, a goat's head rising from its back, a set of goat-udders, and a serpentine tail. ,[object Object]

In computer terminology, polymorphic code is code that uses a polymorphic engine to mutate while keeping the original algorithm intact. That is, the code changes itself each time it runs, but the function of the code (its semantics) will not change at all. This technique is sometimes used by computer viruses, shellcodes and computer worms to hide their presence. ,[object Object]

Historically, tribe was used to designate The Other, especially during colonial expansion. This phenomenon, however, was not restricted to Western colonialism/imperialism in that non-Western empires have used its equivalent to designate those not of their kind. This labeling appears to be a human universal because of simple contact (e.g., the Algonkian Cree and Abenaki Indians in labeling the Inuits Eskimos) or by conquest. ,[object Object]
