  • Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and the Indigenous Communities of South East Zimbabwe, 1934-2008
    Living on the fringes of a protected area: Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and the indigenous communities of South East Zimbabwe, 1934-2008 by Baxter Tavuyanago A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the Department of Historical and Heritage Studies at the UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR A. S. MLAMBO July 2016 i © University of Pretoria Abstract This study examines the responses of communities of south-eastern Zimbabwe to their eviction from the Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and their forced settlement in the peripheral areas of the park. The thesis establishes that prior to their eviction, the people had created a utilitarian relationship with their fauna and flora which allowed responsible reaping of the forest’s products. It reveals that the introduction of a people-out conservation mantra forced the affected communities to become poachers, to emigrate from south-eastern Zimbabwe in large numbers to South Africa for greener pastures and, to fervently join militant politics of the 1960s and 1970s. These forms of protests put them at loggerheads with the colonial government. The study reveals that the independence government’s position on the inviolability of the country’s parks put the people and state on yet another level of confrontation as the communities had anticipated the restitution of their ancestral lands. The new government’s attempt to buy their favours by engaging them in a joint wildlife management project called CAMPFIRE only slightly relieved the pain. The land reform programme of the early 2000s, again, enabled them to recover a small part of their old Gonarezhou homeland.

  • Environment and Culture: a Study of Prehistoric Settlement Patterns in the Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe
    ENVIRONMENT AND CULTURE: A STUDY OF PREHISTORIC SETTLEMENT PATTERNS IN THE EASTERN HIGHLANDS OF ZIMBABWE By Seke Katsamudanga A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF ZIMBABWE IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY FACULTY OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF ZIMBABWE MARCH 2007 To my Parents ABSTRACT There is always a symbiotic relationship between the physical environment and cultural behaviour of a society. The physical environment provides resources and options for subsistence, raw materials for economic development, landforms and landscapes that may later be imbued with iconic, associative, symbolic or religious values. Understanding the environmental conditions in particular cultural landscapes at particular periods may explain aspects of cultural behaviour of communities, especially settlement locations. This research is an investigation of the nature of the prehistoric culture-environment relationship in Zimunya, in the central part of the eastern highlands of Zimbabwe. The eastern highlands form a distinct physiographic region of Zimbabwe, and should have required or led to particular technological and cultural adaptations of the prehistoric communities that lived in it throughout the ages. The results of this investigation show that there are patterns in the distribution of the archaeological settlements in the research area. A statistical investigation of the sites indicates that some of them are associated with particular aspects of the physical environment. Stone Age settlement sites are found on the hills that dot the gently undulating plains and along river valleys of the research area. They are also in close proximity to quartz outcrops, the quartz of which was apparently exploited as raw material for tool manufacturing.

  • Mothers, Soil, and Substance: Stories of Endurance from the Matobo Hills, Zimbabwe
    Mothers, Soil, and Substance: Stories of Endurance from the Matobo Hills, Zimbabwe Belinda Ncube, Swiss Church Aid, Bulawayo Land, a scarce and finite resource is the foundation of liveli- hoods for most Zimbabweans, particularly women who constitute the greatest number of the farmers who work the land for survival. Women farmers are responsible for most of the farm produce yet they do not own the land that they work. Land redistribution pro- grammes, whether those by the colonial government before 1980 or the post-colonial independent state, have displaced and discrimi- nated against women. This paper seeks to highlight the conditions of women, a majority being widows in Matopo District of south- western Zimbabwe, that is, in and around Matopo Mission farm, established by Brethren in Christ Church (BICC) missionaries in the 1890s. The relationship between land and faith is explored as women farmers tell their stories of endurance and resilience to the ever-changing harsh economic, social and environmental condi- tions. Changing weather conditions, conspiring with a declining economy, have eroded the ability of these women to harvest signif- icant produce from their farms and to obtain a decent income from their labour. This paper also seeks to understand the coping mech- anisms that have been adopted by women in response to these changing conditions. 224 Journal of Mennonite Studies Unbundling the Theory Richard White, the noted U.S. environmental historian, has ar- gued that the history of the environment is incomplete without ad- dressing the imperialist undertones that remain hidden in the discourse. White is especially adament that European expansion into indigenous territories is a crucial part of this account and must not be treated simply as the domination of a weaker, “more primitive” system by a more “efficient” one (White, 1990, 1113).
