NEVER AGAIN! -- Report From Kenya groups who do not have an indigenous church of three large Muslim groups the Borana,Bajun and gabbra. come together to reach the unreached peoples of Kenya http://ad2000.org/re71208.htm
Extractions: Dec 4, 1997 In reporting on the impact of the African National Initiatives Consultation in Nairobi early November, Dr Kabachia said, "When the Kenya delegation were confronted by lists of unreached peoples in Kenya, they determined that never again would a Kenyan delegation attend a global consultation to be embarrassed by such lists." He went on to say, "Before the next consultation in the year 2000, every people group in Kenya will be penetrated." Since GCOWE '97, the Kenya delegation of 80-plus leaders has moved decisively forward to give substance to their declaration. In a series of three one-day seminars, GCOWE delegates have met, discussed, decided and acted to implement an exciting plan to see a church established amongst every people group in Kenya by the year 2000. At the October seminar delegates endorsed the Steering Committee's choice of name for the initiative - 'Finish the Task 2000'. Dr Kabachia, chairman of the initiative, explains, "'Finish the Task 2000' is not a general statement, but a specific goal." He said, " There is no way that we can ever be sure that we have completed the job of preaching the gospel to everyone. When it seems that everyone has heard, there will always be someone coming to the age of accountability who will not have heard. What we are talking about are people groups who do not have an indigenous church of their own." In describing the operating style of the Kenya initiative Dr Kabachia explained that, from the outset, the aim has been to encourage wide and active participation by all. He said, "We want 'Finishing the Task 2000' to be idea-friendly and open to all." He went on to explain, "We want everyone to feel this is 'our' thing. Not an 'us' and 'them' thing."

Extractions: They make up about 7.5% of Namibias population, sharing their language with Namas. Traditionally Damara people have been thought of as miners, smelters, copper traders, stock farmers and tobacco growers; until the end of the 19th century when they moved to Damaraland and started practising agriculture. Their traditional crafts include leather goods, glass and metal beadwork, wooden bowls and buckets, clay pipes and bowls, and more recently township art such as wire cars. Herero In 1904, the Herero and the Hottentots staged a massive uprising against the German colonial troops in South West Africa. It ended in a bloody massacre of over half the total Herero population at the battle of Waterberg. The few Herero that survived fled into the Kalahari, some crossing into what is now Botswana. Today, the Herero constitute the third largest ethnic group in Namibia, after the Owambo and Kavango about 8% of the present population. Their language is Bantu-based. In Botswana, they are a minority group inhabiting Ngamiland, south and west of the Okavango Delta.
Extractions: I MILK AS A RAW MATERIAL ANIMAL SPECIES AND MILK COMPOSITION> The preparation of traditional milk products in the regions and countries covered by reports from several contributors and respondents to the FAO world survey is influenced by many factors including agricultural practices, animal husbandry, periods of availability of milk as influenced by weather, climate, stage of development of commercial milk processing in individual countries, eating habits of the rural and urban populations etc. and facilities for conservation of milk etc. Of very considerable influence is the species of animal used for milk production and other agricultural purposes, the breeds of the different species used for milk production and the composition and suitability of the milk of different species for the preparation of milk products. The composition of milk from different species is given in Table 1. The general importance of the individual species for milk production in various regions is summarised in Table 2. Table 1.

Extractions: Registered: Jun 2004 posted 21 June 2004 10:32 AM Thanks. Not sure what your point is though. Those pictures are very well known and could easily be modern or ancient Somalian or Ethiopean. You can't prove non-African origin by virtue of small mouth and long nose, as those features have likely existed in Africa since before the migrations that gave rise to current Euroasian peoples. The ideology of Caucasianism which assumes that Europeans constitute a racial template, by which other people can be defined, and then going around classifying people ranging from the Tutsi, to the Australian Aborigenes as "cau-casoid", has been largely discredited by recent anthropological and DNA based research. In fact - Europeans are not the root of the human family tree, the roots are African, as is the trunk of the tree...in the sense that Africa has more human genetic diversity than all the rest of the world combined. Europe is only a leaf on the tree.

Extractions: Risk, Ruin, and Luxury in Primitive Societies. U. Ulrich Müller-Herold, Department of Environmental Sciences, ETH Zürich, Switzerland; and R. P. Sieferle, Historisches Institut der Universität, D-68131 Mannheim, Germany Anthropologists of earlier generations have always pictured Stone Age man as living on the brink of starvation. According to this view, his life consisted - as Marvin Harris ironically put it in retrospect - of a continuous battle for survival, "a time of great fear and insecurity, when people spent their days ceaselessly searching for food and their nights huddled about fires in comfortless caves besieged by saber-toothed tigers." This view was seriously undermined when in 1972 the American anthropologist Marshall Sahlins characterised Stone Age society as the "original affluent society." Drawing on field studies, above all on Richard Lee's studies of the bushmen of the Kalahari, Sahlins showed that even in such a hostile environment as that of the Kalahari desert, a life of relative material affluence was possible. People had an adequate, balanced diet, consisting of one-third meat and two-thirds plants, with a high proportion of protein. The women gathered over a hundred different species of roots, nuts and tubers, spending not more than two or three days on the process. They did not build up supplies of food, as sufficient quantities were always available for gathering. The men likewise dedicated two to three days a week to the hunt, pursuing not less than 54 edible species of animal.

Extractions: Masai Mara escarpment and plains full of wildebeest and rare black rhino. It is this diversity of habitats and the geographical location of Kenya between several different evolutionary centers that makes Kenya such a wildlife gem. In addition, there are numerous opportunities for cultural experiences with some of the indigenous people. Many of these tribes such as the Maasai, Samburu, Boran, Rendille, Turkana, Gabbra and Swahili still retain much of their traditional customs. Tented Camp There is also a selection of private homes (which we call bush homes), which offer a limited number of accommodations on private game ranches that are often adjacent to parks and reserves. The standards of accommodations and service in these homes are among the finest to be found in Africa. They are all creatively built with local materials and fit in wonderfully with the surrounding environment. Many of these places are owner run and managed and are situated on or near tribal lands allowing one to experience the local African people in their everyday lives.

Extractions: As Christianity fights to keep its place in an increasingly secular European society, it is flourishing in parts of the developing world, particularly in Africa. The single-engined plane wobbled violently on its approach to the dirt strip at Marsabit, but the McGregor family maintained a cheerful calm. Two hours earlier in Nairobi the diminutive woman pilot had strapped us in and then announced: "I'm going to pray now," in a way that suggested more than just a perfunctory formality. But the McGregors - an improbably blond family of Anglican missionaries from Florida - were bouncing down safely enough amid a cloud of red dust, and about to be greeted by an impromptu committee of indigenous children posed around an ancient bicycle. The McGregors had arrived with the Christian message for the nomadic camel herders on Kenya's northern borders. These are what are known as the "un-reached" - people with traditional African religions never before approached by missionaries.

Its mission consists of three interrelated objectives: 1. To programme and execute research; 2. To offer training facilities for PhD candidates in the context of a well-structured framework; 3. To assist in research capacity building in developing countries. The mission of CERES focuses on resource problematics, in which many development problems either find their origin. Resources are not only natural but also human, including capital and knowledge; in fact, CERES' main thrust is the interaction between human and natural resources. Its core research question focuses on the processes and principles underlying perception, access, control and management of those resources in developing countries, and their implications for development. Its problem orientation indicates a multidisciplinary and comparative approach, using a variety of paradigms and a multilevel methodology, ranging from case studies to global surveys.
