Somalia's Judeao-Christian Heritage 3
Aram Somalia's Judeao-Christian Heritage 3 SOMALIA'S JUDEAO-CHRISTIAN HERITAGE: A PRELIMINARY SURVEY Ben I. Aram* INTRODUCTION The history of Christianity in Somalia is considered to be very brief and as such receives only cursory mention in many of the books surveying this subject for Africa. Furthermore, the story is often assumed to have begun just over a century ago, with the advent of modem Western mission activity. However, evidence from three directions sheds light on the pre Islamic Judeao-Christian influence: written records, archaeological data and vestiges of Judeao-Christian symbolism still extant within both traditional 1 Somali culture and closely related ethnic groups • Together such data indicates that both Judaism and Christianity preceded Islam to the lowland Horn of Africa In the introduction to his article on Nubian Christianity, Bowers (1985:3-4) bemoans the frequently held misconception that Christianity only came recently to Africa, exported from the West. He notes that this mistake is even made by some Christian scholars. He concludes: "The subtle impact of such an assumption within African Christianity must not be underestimated. Indeed it is vital to African Christian self-understanding to recognize that the Christian presence in Africa is almost as old as Christianity itself, that Christianity has been an integral feature of the continent's life for nearly two thousand years." *Ben I. Aram is the author's pen name. The author has been in ministry among Somalis since 1982, in somalia itself, and in Kenya and Ethiopia. 1 These are part of both the Lowland and Highland Eastern Cushitic language clusters such as Oromo, Afar, Hadiya, Sidamo, Kambata, Konso and Rendille. -

THE PUNTLAND STATE of SOMALIA 2 May 2010
THE PUNTLAND STATE OF SOMALIA A TENTATIVE SOCIAL ANALYSIS May 2010 Any undertaking like this one is fraught with at least two types of difficulties. The author may simply get some things wrong; misinterpret or misrepresent complex situations.

Somalinimistä, Niiden Kirjoitusasun Vaihtelusta Ja Sen Vaikutuksista Suomessa
SOMALINIMISTÄ, NIIDEN KIRJOITUSASUN VAIHTELUSTA JA SEN VAIKUTUKSISTA SUOMESSA Yusuf Hassan Mohamed Opinnäytetyö, syksy 2016 Diakonia-ammattikorkeakoulu Asioimistulkkauksen koulutus Tulkki (AMK) TIIVISTELMÄ Mohamed, Yusuf Hassan. Somalinimistä, niiden kirjoitusasun vaihtelusta ja sen vaikutuksista Suomessa. syksy 2016, 34 s.. 14 liitettä. Diakonia-ammattikorkeakoulu, Asioimistulkkauksen koulutus, tulkki (AMK) Opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli kuvata ja nimetä ongelmat, joita somalinimien kir- joittamisessa esiintyy. Lisäksi tavoitteena oli antaa kehitysideoita yhteisen ni- menkirjoituslinjan kehittämiselle ja yhtenäistää somalialaisten nimien kirjoitus- käytäntöä. Opinnäytetyö on laadullinen tutkimustyö somalinimista ja sen tulos on yhdenmukaistettu lista naisten ja miesten somalinimistä. Lista käsittää sekä perinteisiä, alkuperäisiä somalinimiä, että vieraista kulttuureista tai kielistä tullei- ta lainanimiä, jotka ovat vakiintuneita somalinimiä. Lista edesauttaa somalinimi- en kirjoitusasujen säilyttämistä. Opinnäytetyön aineistoina on käytetty teemahaastattelua sekä aiheeseen liitty- vää kirjallisuutta, sähköisiä lähteitä ja omia kokemuksia. Haastateltavina on käy- tetty henkilöitä joilla on kokemusta tilanteista, joissa nimenkirjoitusasulla on merkitystä. Haastateltaviksi on valittu kokeneita somalikielen asioimistulkkeja eri puolilta Suomea, ulkomaalaistutkinnan poliiseja ja somalian kielisiä asiakkaita. Kirjallinen aineisto on kerätty aiheeseen liittyvistä julkaisuista ja teoksista. Somaliassa on paljon nimiä, joita käytetään laajasti
