  • CHAPTER 6 a Tapestry of the Ruvu Past: an Overview to C
    Societies, Religion, and History Rhonda M. Gonzales CHAPTER 6 A Tapestry of the Ruvu Past: An Overview to c. 1800 CE There is no way to recapture the individual voices of Ruvu-speaking peoples who long ago 1 lived in central-east Tanzania. But there is a way to recover the legacies that survive in the words they collectively spoke. This book is the first to bring forth a Ruvu social history using, primarily, reconstructed word histories. Within its pages the histories of the words Ruvu speakers once used are woven into accounts that highlight the ways speakers of proto-Ruvu diverged into many language communities. It also recovers details about how proto-Ruvu and speakers of Ruvu descendant languages lived within their communities in earlier times. The histories of some of those words also permit us to access facets of their speculative knowledge. Working from this tapestry of Ruvu word histories, the book argues that Ruvu people took into consideration foremost in building their communities that the cosmos was biaxial. In their views, people, animals, and the other features found on the earth's surface lived in the cosmos's temporal sphere. The other sphere comprised a world of influential spirits. In Ruvu worldviews, spirits could benefit or hinder peoples' lives and livelihoods. That precept did not determine the way Ruvu people lived, but it did underpin the rationales that legitimized the sociocultural institutions they established in their communities. This chapter is a chronological review of the thematic accounts covered in the foregoing 2 chapters. In previous chapters, a majority of the data were presented along thematic lines because that approach preserved the integrity of the information that Ruvu-speaking consultants shared with me.

Its main goals are to maximize the trade, investment and development opportunities of developing countries, to help them face challenges arising from globalization, and to help them integrate into the world economy on an equitable basis. UNCTAD’s membership comprises 192 States. Its secretariat is located in Geneva, Switzerland, and forms part of the United Nations Secretariat. ICC The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) is the world business organization. It is the only body that speaks with authority on behalf of enterprises from all sectors in every part of the world, grouping together thousands of members, companies and associations from 130 countries. ICC promotes an open international trade and investment system and the market economy in the context of sustainable growth and development. It makes rules that govern the conduct of business across borders. Within a year of the creation of the United Nations it was granted consultative status at the highest level (category A) with the United Nations Economic and Social Council. This is now known as General Category consulta- tive status. Notes The term “country” as used in this study also refers, as appropriate, to territories or areas; the designa- tions employed and the presentation of the material do not imply the expression of any opinion whatso- ever on the part of the Secretariat of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

  • Grain Size Distribution and Composition of Modern Dune and Beach Sediments, Malindi Bay Coast, Kenya J.O.Z
    Journal of African Earth Sciences ELSEVIER Journal of African Earth Sciences 36 (2003) 41-54 www.elsevier.com/locate/jafrearsci Grain size distribution and composition of modern dune and beach sediments, Malindi Bay coast, Kenya J.O.Z. Abuodha * School o f Environmental Studies, Moi University, P. O. Box 3900, Eldoret, Kenya Received 26 April 2002; accepted 31 January 2003 Abstract Grain size distribution and heavy mineral content of beach and dune sediments from the Malindi Bay coast, Kenya were de­ termined. Grain sizes were determined by dry sieving sediments; samples represent the upper 5 mm of surficial sediment, collected from the four main geomorphological units (beach, berm zone, foredune and dunefield), during three observation periods, covering the southeast and northeast monsoon seasons. Sediment samples were grouped according to whether they were collected from the northern or southern sector of the Sabaki river. The heavy mineral content of several samples collected from the beach, berm zone and sand dunes was obtained by using separating funnels and tetrabromomethane to gain insight into the mineral distribution, the mineralogy and comment on the economic potential of prospecting for the heavy minerals. The pétrographie parameters determined include the heavy mineral weight percentages and the mineral composition of the heavy fractions obtained using a pétrographie microscope. The Malindi Bay shore is dominated by terrigenous deposits brought in by the Sabaki river which consist mainly of fine- to medium-grained quartz sand. The sediments also contain heavy minerals averaging about 15%, with highest concentration being 67% by weight for the samples analyzed. The heavy mineral suite here is dominated by opaque iron-titanium minerals as well as some red garnet and zircon.

Africa is often presented to students as a place outside of history. Nothing could be further from the truth. Nonetheless, the myth of an Africa “without history” still carries much weight. In this Landscape Teaching Unit, students will find evidence to counter the myth. Africa, it turns out, contributed much more to the human race than simply its existence. Big Era Four saw a good deal of innovation in, among other things, ironworking technology and agriculture. Also, the era marked the linkage of East Africa to Indian Ocean trade networks.
