The Archaeology of the Sesse Islands and Their Contribution to the Understanding of Great Lakes Ceramics Title Page The Archaeology of the Sesse Islands and Their Contribution to the Understanding of Great Lakes Ceramics By Scheherazade Amin Thesis submitted to University College London for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Declaration of Authorship Declaration of Authorship I, Scheherazade Amin, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed ………………………………………. 2 Abstract Abstract The Sesse Islands within the north-eastern sector of Lake Victoria are of particular interest due to their role as a centre of cult practices as recounted in multiple oral and historic traditions. Their interactions with the mainland may be examined through archaeological remains on the islands and the surrounding lakeshore, with ceramics forming the main corpus of material data. Yet despite this privileged social role there has been a lack of any substantive research except on the largest island, with the mainland lakeshore being subject to extensive ceramic analysis in recent decades. Previous archaeological research in the Great Lakes region of East Africa has been heavily reliant on ceramic chronologies derived from a ‘type-variety’ method of analysis. It is argued here that this approach is flawed, and that a more replicable and comparative method is required. With successful applications elsewhere on the continent, ‘attribute-based’ analysis meets such criteria. The Sesse archipelago offers a forum of new ceramic information through which to test applications of this new approach to pottery analysis. Field research for this thesis took place on three of the islands and has identified a number of ceramic-rich sites. A new analysis of these ceramics is presented in this thesis, which not only calls into question the continued use of broad descriptive typological categories such as ‘Urewe Ware’, but also offers a direct dating of excavated ceramics using the new OSL method for the first time in the Lake Victoria basin. The results highlight clusters of attributes in the data suggesting patterns of shared and unique ceramic expression within and between the islands sites and the mainland. These shared traditions frame a scenario of aquatic trade within the lacustrine landscape, with certain ceramic traits manifesting localised cultural identity at a time of increased interaction. 3

In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institu- tions throughout the world. Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affilia- tion with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines.

The attention of Europeans was first attracted to the disease early in 1901, when eight cases of sleeping sickness were admitted to Mengo hospital by the Drs Cook,' who had been established in Uganda some five years, to whom the clinical picture was quite new. Enquiry among the chiefs of Buganda revealed the fact that sleeping sickness was known to the natives as mongota, and was more prevalent in the eastern portion of the Pro- Parasitology xi 27 416 Tsetse Flies and Trypanosomiasis tectorate than in Buganda itself.

Indeed we have registered significant achievements in respect to infrastructural development, human development and governance initiatives. This has been achieved through commitment by both the Political and administrative leaders coupled with the continued support from our development partners. The District Vision "A population empowered to sustain growth and development Buvuma Islands”. Mission Statement "To improve the quality of life of the people of Buvuma District through equitable service delivery and good governance so as to attain sustainable economic transformation." As we lay down policies and strategies for the ensuing FY 2014/15, our focus is squarely on ensuring equitable service delivery especially in the underserved communities in Buvuma Islands. This will be achieved through periodic and routine maintenance of our roads, improving agricultural production and productivity through distribution of agricultural inputs to farm families and promotion of value addition especially on silver fish. Improving human development through construction and rehabilitation of education and health infrastructure will also be top on our agenda. With low safe water coverage of 33.2%, our target is to raise it to at least 38% through construction of piped water scheme in low safe water Islands and more so provide water harvesting tanks.

History may also be defined as a branch of knowledge which deals with past events of human beings and their response to their environment over the years.R.G Collingwood, in his book The Idea of History (OUP 1994) defined history as a “science concerned with the human actions in the past, pursued by interpretation of evidence for the sake of Human self knowledge.” That history is a science because it involves finding out things about the past Humankind. For example, the origin of Man, why he was a toolmaker, why he domesticated animals and plants. These are questions that provoke scientific curiosity. The three definitions of History from the above are: History is the past of anything; of earth, man, disease or animals History is a branch of knowledge dealing with past events History is a science concerned with past Human actions Since History at secondary level is specifically concerned with the past as it relates to humankind and his response to his environment over the years, the working definition of history is therefore; History is the endless story of mankind’s actions and events affecting him in the past.

    NYAME AKUMA No. 3 1 EDITORIAL This will be the last number produced under my editorship. I have decided, after producing ten numbers since 1982, that it is time for someone else to take over. I am pleased to announce that Dr. John R.F. Bower of Iowa State University has agreed to assume the editorship effective immediately, and will thus be responsible for Number 32. Dr. Bower has a long record of involvement in African archaeology and was also a professional editor at Rand McNally for five years. He thus brings to Nvame Akuma the required expertise to continue what Peter and Ama Shinnie began. Bower will have far greater institutional support than was available to me and we both hope that this will make it possible for Nvame Akuma to become a more regular arrival in your mail than has been the case of late. I wish to thank those who have helped me keep Nyame Akuma going over the past eight years. First, and foremost. my thanks go to the conmbutors who have seen this newsletter as the appropriate place in which to publish their reports despite its status as a non-refereed publication. Without their commitment, Nyame Akuma could not exist. Dr. Pamela Willoughby has, since 1985. helped in the daily chores of looking after subscriptions and in other unglamourous tasks. Dr. Mary Jackes has helped in innumerable ways. The staff of the University of Alberta Printing Services, (Bernie Cordell. Bernadette Quenneville, Earl Olsen, Ed Annaka, Linda Ludlow. Douglas Martin and others) have gone far beyond the call of duty to help produce Nvame Akuma and to educate me in the inmcacies of computer-aided publication.
