  • Tragedy, Ritual, and Power in Nilotic Regicide
    Tragedy, Ritual and Power in Nilotic Regicide: The regicidal dramas of the Eastern Nilotes of Sudan in Comparative Perspective1 Simon Simonse Introduction Regicide as an aspect of early kingship is a central issue in the anthropological debate on the origin of the state and the symbolism of kingship. By a historical coincidence the kingship of the Nilotic Shilluk has played a key role in this debate which was dominated by the ideas of James Frazer, as set out in the first (The Magic Art and the Evolution of Kings), the third (The Dying God) and the sixth part (The Scapegoat) of The Golden Bough (1913). The fact that the Shilluk king was killed before he could die a natural death was crucial to Frazer’s interpretation of early kingship. Frazer equated the king with a dying god who though his death regenerates the forces of nature. This ‘divine kingship’ was an evolutionary step forward compared to ‘magical kingship’ where the power of the king is legitimated by his claim to control the natural processes on which human communities depend. Frazer’s interpretation of kingship was opposed by a post-war generation of anthropologists who were interested in the empirical study of kingship as a political system and who treated the ritual and symbolic aspects of kingship as a secondary dimension of kingship more difficult to penetrate by the methodology of structural-functional analysis. The reality of the practice of regicide that was so central to Frazer’s interpretations of kingship was put in doubt (Evans-Pritchard, 1948). The ongoing practice by mostly Eastern Nilotic communities of killing Rainmakers when they failed to make rain – noted by Frazer in The Golden Bough (1913, Part 1, Vol.

  • The Burst and the Cut Stomach -The Metabolism of Violence and Order
    The Burst and the Cut Stomach . -The Metabolism of Violence and Order 1n Nilotic Kingship- SIMON SIMONSE Universit;' of Leiden An interpretation is offered of two contrasting Nilotic customs relating to the stomach of a king who has just died: the cutting of the stomach of a king who has been killed by his subjects for causing drought and the practice of some Bari speaking peoples of allowing the stomach of the king, who has died a natural death, to bloat and burst. The case material on the cutting of the stomach is taken from nineteenth cen­ tury accounts by travellers and a missionary concerning two cases of regicide among the Bari and from the study of the murder of the Pari queen in 1984 by the an­ thropologist Eisei Kurimoto. In a first round of interpretation it is argued that the relevant property of the stomach in this context, as well as in other Nilotic sacrificial ritual, is its capacity to turn a mass of undifferentiated substance into something valued and desirable. In a sec­ ond round we demonstrate that the stomach-metaphor is used to make sense of the socio-political impact of the king on the conflicts in his realm and, closely interwined with that, of his cosmic impact on the weather. To understand why the king's metabolism plays such an important role at the moment of his death we turn to the theory of the victimary origins of kingship developed by Rene Girard. Since the death of the king is a powerful lever for achieving social unity and cosmic harmony, his peo­ ple should leave nothing to chance when he dies, especially with regards to the organ most closely associated with his powers to dissolve conflicts and bring peace and rain.

  • Jonglei and Greater Pibor Administrative Area
    Jonglei and Greater Pibor Administrative Area Humanitarian Update as of 8 December 2020 HIGHLIGHTS • Large-scale inter-communal and sub-national violence, mainly during the dry season, and massive flooding during the rainy season have displaced hundreds of thousands of people in Jonglei and Greater Pibor Administrative Area (GPAA) in 2019 and 2020. These recurrent shocks have created new humanitarian needs, in addition to those planned for in the 2020 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP), which targets some 1 million people in the area. • More than 100 humanitarian organizations have operated in Jonglei during 2020. Half of them are national NGOs. • Conflict, insecurity, flooding and COVID-19 restrictions have severely impacted humanitarian organizations’ ability to reach the most vulnerable people with much-needed assistance. Of the nine humanitarian workers killed in 2020, eight lost their lives in Jonglei and GPAA. All were South Sudanese. • It is highly likely that sub-national conflict and flooding will occur again in Jonglei and GPAA in 2021 and lead to further displacement and an increase in people’s emergency needs, unless mitigating measures are taken to reduce their impact.
