  • The Amerindians of Guyana: a Biological Review
    D. R. BROTHWELL British Museum (Natural History) The Amerindians of Guyana: A Biological Review ALTHOUGH SOME INDIGENOUS populations of South America have received fairly in- tensive study in recent years, other regions have remained surprisingly neglected. Human biological knowledge of the Amerindians of Guyana (formerly British Guiana) is extremely scattered, and the sum total far from satisfactory. There would thus seem justification for a review of the information so far at hand, and the problems and potentialities of field-work among these people in the future. This review would also seem pertinent in view of the pre- sent stocktaking policy of the IBP as regards human populations (for a general review of South American Amerindians, under the auspices of this international endeavour, one is referred to Baker and Weiner.1 The information presented results from a study of both published and unpublished data, and a short field visit I undertook during the latter part of 1966.* Like other parts of the Amazonian tropical zone, transport is minimal to the interior of the country, and progress by boat or on foot is slow, particularly when there is a need to sample communities in widely differing parts of the country. During the rainy periods of course, communication becomes even more difficult; similarly, at other times a group may be dispersed for reasons of balata bleeding, or when the village school is closed families may be scattered on their cassava plots in the forests. It is thus understandable that data tends to be restricted to specific tribes or regions and that no traits have received attention on a country-wide basis.

  • Bishop Weld, SJ
    Part V: Bishop Weld, S.J. 1 Bishop George Weld, S.J. Vicar Apostolic, 1932 – 1953 On the 18th January, 1932, came the Appointment of Fr. George Weld as Titular Bishop of Mallo and Vicar Apostolic in succession to Bishop Galton. As Head Master of St. Stanislaus College for the previous eight years during which time he forged the pace that had brought the College to its top ranking position of today, Fr. Weld had made a place for himself not only among Catholics but in the general community. That same intense capacity for work, care and attention to detail was now to be carried into a greater sphere. As Bishop-elect he proceeded to England and was consecrated on Whitsunday of the same year in Westminister Cathedral by Cardinal Archbishop Bourne, assisted by Archbishop Goodier, S.J., (Titular Bishop of Hierapolis) .and Bishop Brown (Titular Bishop of Pela).Much as he would have liked to have been consecrated in his own Cathedral, the city, whose material resources at this stage had been already drained to build that Cathedral, should not be asked to meet a further call which the holding Right Reverend GEORGE WELD, S.J. of' the ceremony here would necessarily have Titular Bishop of Mallo involved. Thus even in this, lay a very real concern Consecrated: Whit Sunday, 1932 for his flock. Vicar Apostolic to September, 1953. Nursing Sisters Immediately following his consecration, Bishop Weld proceeded for his first visit to Rome. While there, he completed arrangements for the coming to this colony of the Czechoslovakian nuns to take over the nursing at the Leper Hospital, Mahaica.
