  • Use of Plant Names for the Classification of the Bantu Languages of Gabon
    Use of Plant Names for the Classification of the Bantu Languages of Gabon Rebecca Grollemund and Jean-Marie Hombert Laboratoire Dynamique du Langage, CNRS UMR 5596, France 1. Introduction Since the early seventies, several classifications of Bantu languages have been proposed. Two branches have been identified in some of these classifications: Eastern and Western Bantu. The homogeneity of the languages of the Eastern branch has been confirmed, while the situation appears more complex with Western languages. Indeed, Bastin, Coupez and Mann (1999) have highlighted the complexity of the North-Western area which includes languages belonging to zones A and B. The purpose of this paper is to examine the North-Western area through the study of zones A, B and H languages spoken in Gabon in order to better understand the historical relationships between these Bantu languages. We propose classifications involving news techniques borrowed from biology (i.e. the phylogenetic method), like a network-building method, Neighbor-Net, in order to examine the historical relationships among these Bantu languages. First, we will present the major classifications proposed for Bantu languages, especially for the North-Western zone. Then, we will present our first classification based on basic vocabulary. Finally, we will discuss a second classification based on specialized lexicon of plant names. We will then point out the similarities and differences between these two classifications. 2. Linguistic situation of Gabon Gabon is a country situated in Equatorial Africa, bordering the Atlantic Ocean, between the Republic of the Congo and Equatorial Guinea. Gabon is a multilingual country with more than 50 Bantu languages and one non-Bantu language (Baka, an Ubangian language), spoken by 1,291,000 speakers (according to Lewis’ estimation (2009), http://www.ethnologue.com/).

  • Ecosystem & Relict Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda
    ECOSYSTEM & RELICT CULTURAL LANDSCAPE OF LOPÉ-OKANDA GABON Few other African sites to have so high a density of animal biomass, which exists within a well protected forest varied and large enough to maintain its genetic diversity. The site also preserves a record of biological evolution over the last 15,000 years on the edge between a dense and well conserved tropical rainforest and relict savannah. These occur with an exceptional record of successive cultures from the late Palaeolithic, their hilltop and cave sites, tools, iron workings and some 1,800 petroglyphs; also the record of the southeastward migration of the Bantu peoples through the Ogooué valley. COUNTRY Gabon NAME Ecosystem and Relict Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda MIXED NATURAL AND CULTURAL WORLD HERITAGE SITE 2007: Inscribed on the World Heritage list under Cultural Criteria iii and iv & Natural Criteria ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: The Ecosystem and Relic Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda represents an unusual interface between dense and well conserved tropical rainforest and relict savannah environments. A greater number of threatened species of large mammals find their last refuge in Lopé-Okanda than in any other comparable rainforest area in the Congo Rainforest Biogeographical Province. The property also preserves a record of biological evolution over the last 15,000 years of the still extant rainforest-savannah transition zone. The Lopé-Okanda National Park displays remarkable evidence for settlement stretching over 400,000 years from the Palaeolithic, through the Neolithic and Iron Age, to the present day Bantu and Pygmy peoples.

  • The Baka of Gabon: the Study of an Endangered Language and Culture
    Proceedings of FEL XI, Working Together for Endangered Languages: Research Challenges and Social Impacts, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 26-28 October 2007, David, M., Ostler, N. & Dealwis , C. (eds), University of Malaya, pp. 163-171. The Baka of Gabon: the Study of an Endangered Language and Culture Pascale Paulin Dynamique Du Langage Laboratory CNRS & Lyon 2 University – FRANCE [[email protected]] Abstract The Baka Pygmies, in Gabon, are unusual in that they speak an Ubangian language in an essentially Bantu environment. This small community has successfully maintained their language despite pressure from Fang, the language of one of the country’s majority ethnic groups. However, government imposed sedentarization policies have forced this population to abandon their nomadic lifestyle, a consequential change which has important repercussions for the community as a whole. In this article I talk about my fieldwork, and the impact of my presence as I see it in the Baka community during the last three years, as well as the relationship of trust established between myself and the community. I discuss how my principal collaborator gave me some confidential information during my last field trip. I then introduce the different factors which have contributed to the endangerment not only of the Baka language but also of the Baka culture, including a difference in the social status between the Baka and Fang populations, and the deprecating attitudes of the Fang towards the Baka, which has convinced the latter that they are inferior. Finally, I discuss the various ways in which my different language informants give value to their language and culture, notably through the different types of language products I have given back to the population.

  • A Multidisciplinary Approach of the Bantu-Speaking Populations of Africa (OMLL – 01-JA27: 01-B07/01-S08/01-V01)
    Language, Culture and Genes in Bantu: a Multidisciplinary Approach of the Bantu-speaking Populations of Africa (OMLL – 01-JA27: 01-B07/01-S08/01-V01) The Case of Gabon Lolke J. Van der Veen (Project Leader), Jaume Bertranpetit (Principal Investigator), David Comas, Lluis Quintana-Murci, Mark Stoneking (Principal Investigator) Introduction This interdisciplinary EUROCORES OMLL project started at the beginning of 2002 as an extended version of a similar project on Bantu languages and genes. This latter officially commenced, under Lolke Van der Veen’s supervision, in July 2000 as part of the “Origine de l’Homme, du Langage et des Langues” programme launched and funded by the French CNRS1. The present Collaborative Research Project (CRP) consists of one main project submitted by the research laboratory “Dynamique du Langage” (UMR 5596, Lyon, France) and two joint projects submitted respectively by research teams from Germany and Spain (see below). This detailed outline of the project wants to highlight the project’s goals and specific features, and summarises the state of the art. The LCGB project: objectives and approach The ultimate goal of the “LCGB” project is to elaborate a solidly based multidisciplinary theory of the origin and expansion of Bantu and the Bantu-speaking populations, on the basis of correlations between linguistic, biological and anthropological markers. Do historical linguistics, population genetics, cultural anthropology and archaeology all tell the same story? Combining linguistics and population genetics still is a rather controversial issue, but applying this enlarged multidisciplinary approach to the study of Bantu expansion may positively contribute to the debate and offers promising perspectives for a new synthesis in this field of investigation.

  • Metalexicographic Criteria for a Monolingual Descriptive Dictionary Presenting the Standard Variety of Yipunu
    Metalexicographic Criteria for a Monolingual Descriptive Dictionary Presenting the Standard Variety of Yipunu By Fatima TOMBA MOUSSAVOU Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor in Literature (Lexicography) at the University of Stellenbosch Promoter: Prof. R. H. Gouws December 2007 http://scholar.sun.ac.za/ DECLARATION I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this dissertation is my own original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any University for a degree. Signature Stellenbosch, December 2007. ii http://scholar.sun.ac.za/ SUMMARY/OPSOMMING SUMMARY English The dictionaries available in the Gabonese languages are all translation dictionaries biased towards French and compiled by missionaries and colonial administrators. No proper monolingual dictionaries exist in the Gabonese languages. There is therefore a need for monolingual dictionaries in the Gabonese languages, particularly in Yipunu, one of the Bantu languages (B 43) spoken in the South of Gabon. Yipunu is a regional vehicular language or a major or majority language. Yipunu is a domestic language i.e spoken inside Bapunu communities or a mother tongue or first language and Yipunu is also taught as subject in the national educational system. As a response to this need, this dissertation proposes metalexicographic criteria for the compilation of a standard descriptive monolingual dictionary with special reference to Yipunu. The proposed model focuses primarily on the inclusion and the treatment of the standard variety of Yipunu and to a lesser degree on the other varieties. Such a model is directed at a dictionary primarily dealing with the needs of the average, educated members of the Yipunu speech community, the mother-tongue speakers, and also designed for experienced and advanced learners of Yipunu and their teachers.
