This is an attempt to write the story of Scripture translations in Kenya. The story started in 1845 when J.L. Krapf, a German C.M.S. missionary, started his translations of Scriptures into Swahili, Galla and Kamba. The work of translation has since continued to go from strength to strength. There were many problems during the pioneer days. Translators did not know well enough the language into which they were to translate, nor could they get dependable help from their illiterate and semi literate converts. -

Map 5.1 Location of Turkana District 48 5.1 the STRUGGLE for LAND
THE STRUGGLE FOR LAND AND LIVESTOCK AMONG THE Nyangatom (Oonyiro) TURKANA, (EX)-NOMADIC PASTORALISTS OF NORTH-WEST ETHIOPIA V-^ KENYA SUDAN Jiye Dasanetch (Merille) M.M.E.M. Rutten Toposa 5.1 Introduction s -^-^ c The arid and semi-arid areas of Kenya are the habitat for some 1.2 million nomadic livestock keepers. These people move around with their cattle, sheep, goats and camels in search of food and water for the animais. The people themselves mainly live on the milk products of the animais. In this way human beings are trying to make a living in a harsh environment, but they do not always suoceed. Opinions differ on the reasons for the periodic collapse of such nomadic Systems. 'Nomadic pastoralists are all striving for a herd as large as possible at the cost of the quality of the animais and the ecology of their environment'. This often-heard statement is and has been made not only by laymen, but also by many 'experts', both government officials and scientists, e.g. Henriksen (1974), Herskovits (1948) and Konzacki (1978). In what follows, I shall try to show that the link between the supposed désire for as large a herd as possible and thé conséquent dégradation of the environment leading to the ultimate breakdown of the pastoral system, cannot be made in such a général and simplistic manner. TANZANIA The potential and/or periodical catastrophes within thé pastoral way of life are due to many différent causes, each acting in its own spécifie way. Economie, political, ecological and socio-cultural factors need to be studied within a historical perspective if thé struggle for land and livestock by thé nomadic pastoralists is to be understood. -

Volume 7, Number 1 The African Family from the Experience of a Catholic Couple in Ethiopia By Abel Muse and Tenagnework Haile Abstract Africans should preserve the noble family life, traditions and cultures that they inherited from their forefathers. They need to exercise it and live it for themselves rather than imitating the culture and living style of others. Each African country has its unique tradition and culture that some may not perceive as their riches. -
