42. The Environmental History Of Africa: Topic 10

    Extractions: The Serengeti-Mara Plain lies across the Tanzania/Kenya border and is roughly the size of Connecticut and Rhode Island. The Kenyan national park portion of the Serengeti plain is called Maasai-Mara. This area as a whole is symbolic of a landscape that epitomizes the concept of African Eden, a landscape protected by European interest in preserving what they perceive as an unchanging piece of Africa as a preserve of African wildlife free from human depredations. Analyzing it as a dynamic ecosystem thus has particular value. My thesis that the Serengeti-Mara is an anthropogenic landscape requires challenging the idea that it was a pristine historically unchanging ecosystem. Part of the argument also is that its status has been a product of the sweep of human demography, regional economic change, and political movements within the East African region. Serengeti-Mara most affected by its geological and climatic status as highland plain surrounded by mountains, shallow agriculturally marginal soils, and swept annually by wet/dry oscillations of the ITCZ that creates seasonal pasture, water sources, and a pattern of herbivore migration and predator hunting. In historical terms there were historical periods from 1800-present: 1800-1850 Part of limited regional economy dominated by Maasai transhumant pastoralism, trade links to adjacent cereal-producing zones, long-distance trade in iron, salt, and ivory. Mixed grassland and scrub acacia landscapes allowed limited contact with tsetse fly that meant a degree of immunity from sleeping sickness. Human competition over water sources and seasonal pasture favored pastoral control over central plain. Larger scale kingdoms grew up around lakes region. Most people had very limited contact with a wider world. Was this ecology control?

    Extractions: History: The present country came into being with the union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. There are over 120 tribes on the mainland, most of which migrated from other parts of Africa. The first European arrival was the Portuguese explorer, Vasco da Gama, who visited the coast in the late-15th century, after which most of the littoral region came under Portuguese control. The Portuguese also controlled Zanzibar until 1699, when they were ousted from the island by Omani Arabs. In the late-19th century, along with Rwanda and Burundi, Tanganyika was absorbed into the colony of German East Africa, as a consequence of a deal between the British and Germans – one process in the European colonial carve-up of Africa. Other than an anti-colonial rebellion in 1905 – known as the Maji Maji revolt, which was suppressed by German troops – Tanganyika was a fairly quiet part of the German empire, until the end of World War I. Then, following the German defeat, it was administered by the British under successive League of Nations and United Nations mandates. Tanganyika became independent within the Commonwealth in 1961, after a period of self-government during which the principal nationalist party, the Tanganyika African National Union (TANU), emerged as the dominant political force. Its charismatic leader, Julius Nyerere, held the post of President from independence to 1985; he occupied the position of Chairman until 1990. In 1964, Tanganyika joined with Zanzibar and became Tanzania. Prior to that, Zanzibar had been a British protectorate (established in 1890) and an independent sultanate in 1963.

    Extractions: 77 day Nairobi CapeTown The first written record of Mozambique dates from the 10th century AD, when Arab writer al-Mas'udi mentioned the town of Sofala (south of present-day Beira) and the iron-using people called the Wak Wak who lived there. Long before that time, perhaps as early as the 3rd century AD, Bantu-speaking peoples from central Africa migrated to the region, where they grew crops and raised cattle. Their settlements took on increasing complexity. By the 10th century, settlements featured stone enclosures, and their inhabitants played an important role in intra-African trade to the west. Over the next several centuries, traders from north-eastern Africa and later from the Middle East and Asia arrived by sea, prompting ports along the Mozambican coast to flourish. Sofala, among the most prominent ports, developed as a trade center for gold from the interior.

    http://tanzania.safari.co.za/Tanzania_Travel_Articles-travel/tanzania's-safari-h
    
    Extractions: In East Africa, the concept of safari existed long before the coming of the white man. From the earliest times, caravans of porters carried oil, skins and rhinoceros horn out of the African interior to be traded with the seafaring people of the Swahili coast. These journeys – called in Arabic safaris - grew bigger and more complex with rise of the slaving empire of Zanzibar , the scarlet flag of the sultan at the head of the caravans h sent out proclaiming his dominions over a huge area that none but a few of his servants would ever see. Yet still the caravans wound their way inexorably in and out, from Zanzibar to Lake Victoria , escorting slaves or leaving them dying by the roadside, porters staggering under the great tusks of ivory or bundles of silks they carried. Europeans, in their first explorations, changed little except the paraphernalia – their porters carried extra boxes of muskets and guns, or even cannon, for ‘pacifying’ villages and chiefdoms as they passed through, flanked by special regiments of guards recruited from Zanzibar before setting off. Zanzibar remained the jumping off point for safaris to the mainland – the place where merchants must be haggled with, porters and guards engaged, officials called upon, safe passages secured and bribes paid. Europeans who wished to set off into the wide, free spaces of the mainland had first to endure days, weeks, even months of sweating, jostling and complaining in the stifling heat of Zanzibar’s Stone Town.

    Extractions: Even those people who’ve only dreamed of visiting Zanzibar have usually heard its nickname ‘The Spice Island’ . Just the word conjures up heady, exotic aromas and rich, exciting flavours. But for those who like hard facts to go with their romantic fantasies, here’s a rundown of Zanzibar’s spice heritage in more detail: Spices are best described as the dried parts of aromatic plants whose qualities are perceived through smell and taste. As well as their more obvious function in flavouring food, spices have a profound effect on health , affecting many functional processes of the body. Because they act as anti-oxidants, they are essential in the preservation of foods. The use of spices is almost as old as human history itself. As far back as 2600BC, there are records of the Egyptians feeding spices obtained from Asia to labourers building the great pyramid of Cheops, to give them strength. Long before the 6th century BC, when Confucius advocated the use of ginger, the Chinese were obtaining spices from the tropics.
