Bresnahan June 2010 © 2010 David P. Bresnahan. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Sacred Spaces, Political Authority, and the Dynamics of Tradition in Mijikenda History by DAVID P. BRESNAHAN has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Nicholas M. Creary Assistant Professor of History Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT BRESNAHAN, DAVID P., M.A., June 2010, History Sacred Spaces, Political Authority, and the Dynamics of Tradition in Mijikenda History (156 pp.) Director of Thesis: Nicholas M. Creary This thesis explores the social, political, and symbolic roles of the Mijikenda kayas in the Coast Province of Kenya. The kayas, which exist today as sacred grove forests, are the original homesteads of the Mijikenda and the organizational units from which the symbolic authority and esoteric knowledge of the Mijikenda elders are derived. As a result, I conceptualize kayas as the physical space of the forests, but also complex networks of political, metaphysical, and symbolic power. While the kaya forests and their associated institutions have often been framed as cultural relics, I use this lens to illustrate how the position of the kayas in Mijikenda life has influenced broader social and political developments. Three main themes are developed: the first theme addresses how the kayas were used in different capacities to create space from the encroachment of colonial rule.

  • Kenya – National Report 2019
    MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING CMS/IOSEA/MOS8/Inf.7.1.e ON THE CONSERVATION AND 28 August 2019 MANAGEMENT OF MARINE TURTLES AND THEIR HABITATS OF THE INDIAN Original: English OCEAN AND SOUTH-EAST ASIA 8TH MEETING OF THE SIGNATORY STATES Da Nang, Viet Nam, 21-25 October 2019 Agenda Item 9.1 KENYA – NATIONAL REPORT 2019 (Prepared by Kenya) IOSEA MARINE TURTLES MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING - NATIONAL REPORTING 2019 IOSEA Marine Turtles MoU - National Reports The purpose of completing the national report is to provide information on your country’s implementation of the IOSEA Marine Turtle MoU including, as far as possible, contributions of cooperating non-governmental partners. Implementation will be assessed in terms of the six objectives of the Conservation and Management Plan (CMP). The online questionnaire is divided into these six main objectives, and asks specific questions in relation to the activities that need to be carried out to fulfil those objectives. Please answer all questions as fully and as accurately as possible. It may seem time-consuming, but once you have completed the first report, the next time will be much easier because you can simply revise your existing report online. Comprehensive responses to the questions posed in Section 1.4 should satisfy many of the reporting requirements of the 2004 FAO Guidelines to Reduce Sea Turtle Mortality in Fishing Operations, thereby avoiding duplication of effort. Description text is provided below some of the questions to explain what information needs to be provided. Text boxes can be expanded to accommodate longer answers or to explain and provide additional information, beyond what is requested.

  • The Geomorphology of Southeast Kenya
    THE GEOMORPHOLOGY OF SOUTHEAST KENYA A. P. Oosterom STELLINGEN 1. Bij de vorming van de uitgestrekte planatievlakken in Oost-Kenia heeft marine en lacustrine abrasie een belangrijke rol gespeeld. Dit proefschrift. 2. De schaarste aan fossielen van hominiden in Oost-Afrika over de periode van ongeveer 500 000 tot 50 000 jaar BP is schijnbaar. 3. Voor de toepassing van geografische informatiesystemen op bedrijfsniveau in reliefrijke gebieden is het essentieel om programmatuur te ontwikkelen die identificatie van de geologische en geomorfologische positie van een gekozen punt mogelijk maakt. 4. De klink van het Basis- en het Hollandveen is er medeverantwoordelijk voor dat er in Nederland geen aanwijzingen worden gevonden voor hoge holocene zeestanden. 5. De geringschatting van het belang van onderwijs en onderzoek in de geologie en geomorfologie aan de Landbouwuniversiteit te Wageningen is een uiting van onwetenschappelijk doe-het-zelf-denken. 6. Zolang de programmatuur voor het opnemen, opslaan en opvragen van kaarteringsgegevens minder flexibel is dan een veldboekje staat het gebruik van handterminals en veldcomputers vernieuwing in de weg. 7. De betrouwbaarheidsgrens van 25 000 jaar voor de datering van organische carbqnaten met behulp van de 14C-methode is te hoog.. Dit proefschrift. 8. Het woord automatisering wekt onjuiste verwachtingen als het gaat om de invoering en het gebruik van computers. 9. Kerkelijke liedboeken behoren losbladig te zijn. 10.

  • The Drowned Valleys on the Coast of Kenya
    THE DROWNED VALLEYS ON THE COAST OF KENYA. By H. L. SIKES, B.A., B.E., H.INST. C.E., F.G.S. In his report on the Geology of the East Africa Protectorate .(Col. Rep. Misc. No. 45, Cd. 3828, London, 1908), Mr. H. B. Maufe pomted out that the tidal creeks on the coast of Kenya, the rock floors of which are far below sea level, originated as land valleys, which are now •• drowned." He also indicated that the sub-aerial erosion which produced or rejuvenated these valleys must have taken .place subse• quent to the formation of the raised coral reefs of Pleistocene age which form the existing coastal strip including most of Mombasa Island. Although much is still obscure, light has been thrown in recent years on the oscillations of relative level between sea and land on .the .East African coast. Amongst the writings which bear on this matter are Stockley's report on the" Geology of the Zanzibar Protec• tora.te " (London, 1928) with the associated report on the" Palaeon• tology of the Zanzibar Protectorate " by various specialists (London, 1927), Monograph No. IV of the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow Univer• sity, containing various reports on geological collections from the coast lands of Kenya Colony made by Miss McKinnon W0011, and various papers and other publications recording the results of research work in other parts of the world on the relative level of land and sea during Quaternary times, the factors influencing coral growth, the solution of limestones by sea water and other phenomena. Borings carried out from time to time for the purpose of obtaining information relating to foundations for bridges and other structures, and to find water, have yielded evidence which is not without significance in the consideration of the history of these submerged valleys.

  • From Farming to Fishing: Marine Resource Conservation and a New Generation of Fishermen
    Western Indian Ocean J. Mar. Sci. Vol. 7,FROM No. 1,FARMING pp. 1–14, TO FISHING 2008 1 © 2008 WIOMSA From Farming to Fishing: Marine Resource Conservation and a New Generation of Fishermen Nicole Versleijen1 and Jan Hoorweg2 1P.O. Box 3857, Zanzibar, Tanzania; 2African Studies Centre, P.O. Box 9555, 2300 RB Leiden, the Netherlands Keywords: Artisanal fishers, household survey, income diversification, marine conservation, Kenya Abstract—This paper examines the arrival of a new group of fishermen on the Kenyan coast and what this has meant for the state of fishery resources. It reviews four subject areas: access and the number of fishermen; the fishermen’s identity; the choice of fishing gear; and the fishing grounds selected. Data were collected from a small number of fishing households in the villages of Uyombo and Takaungu in Kilifi District, using mainly qualitative research methods. Local households on the Kenyan coast face increasing pressure on land as well as on marine resources. The declining economic situation and greater pressure on land have made people turn to fishing as an income-generating activity. This group of fishermen is referred to as the ‘new’ generation of fishermen as they have been involved in fishing for only one or two generations (including the current one) in contrast to the ‘old’ generation from families who have been fishing or in fishing- related activities for much longer. The old generation of fishermen and their households have also diversified their incomes, with many fishing households turning to farming, for example, with women and grown-up children involved in various activities.
