The Mbendjele Yaka in Northern Congo-Brazzaville REGIONAL CASES - Cameroon: Does isolation still protect forest communities? Indigenous forest peoples' isolation also means that most of them still have almost no access to modern health care, or formal education, and most are unable to speak and read French, the official language that dominates the forest zone in Cameroon. Until recent moves by the Cameroon government and NGOs to enable formal registration few of these people had their own identity cards, and almost all were absent from official census data and electoral lists. Thus they have been unable to stand up to powerful outsiders who sought to abuse their rights and the forest remains an important refuge. http://www.wrm.org.uy/countries/Cameroon/still.html

"Highly Recommended! [A] little gem... Part of what makes FANG so clever is that with each vignette, director Susan Vogel uses a different film style and look. The effect is delightfully quirky, but never kitschy... there is nothing to dislike here. The film raises questions about authenticity, art, culture, and history, and would be useful in stimulating discussion. It would be an excellent addition to collections supporting art history, African history, or anthropology."

26. The Metropolitan Museum Of Art - News From The Met Today the collections of the Department of the Arts of africa, Oceania, as well as Australia and the indigenous peoples of Southeast Asia. http://www.metmuseum.org/news/arts_afr.htm

Press Releases and General Information ARTS OF AFRICA, OCEANIA, AND THE AMERICAS Nearly 1,600 objects from Africa, the Pacific Islands, and the Americas are on view in The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Michael C. Rockefeller Wing. They span 3,000 years, three continents, and many islands, and represent a rich diversity of cultural traditions. Highlights of the collection include works from the Court of Benin in Nigeria and sculpture from West and Central Africa; wood sculpture from New Guinea and the island groups of Melanesia and Polynesia; and gold, ceramic, and stone objects from the Precolumbian cultures of Mexico and Central and South America. These collections are of varied materials and types, and range from ritual sculpture to gold and silver ornaments, costumes and textiles, impressive ceremonial figures, and monuments of wood and stone. Although The Metropolitan Museum of Art made its first acquisitions among these fields – a group of Peruvian antiquities – as early as 1882, no significant commitment to the arts of Africa, Oceania, or the Americas was made until 1969. At that time, Nelson A. Rockefeller offered the entire collection of a museum that he had founded in 1954, the Museum of Primitive Art, to the Metropolitan Museum. Included in the gift were 3,300 works of art, a specialized library, and a photographic archive. A separate department for the care, study, and exhibition of these works and study materials was then established at the Metropolitan. Today the collections of the Department of the Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas are housed in the Michael C. Rockefeller Wing, named for Nelson Rockefeller's son, who collected many of the Asmat objects from Irian Jaya, western New Guinea, that are now in the Museum. Among the most spectacular objects in the wing are the nine 15-foot-high Asmat memorial poles (bis) collected by Michael Rockefeller in the early 1960s. The Rockefeller Wing opened to the public in February 1982 and houses 40,000 square feet of exhibition space as well as an office mezzanine with art storerooms, a photograph archive, and the Robert Goldwater Library.

Encompasses Cameroon, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Gabon, Republic of Congo, Cabinda, and Angola See also Eastern Africa Guinea Coast Southern Africa , and Western and Central Sudan The British ban on the international slave trade and the development of Arab-Swahili caravan routes from eastern Africa shifts the trade in slaves to the east. In western Central Africa, heightened demand for local African products such as ivory, wax, and rubber allows previously subjugated or isolated peoples such as the Chokwe to rise to economic prominence and displace traditional powers such as the far-flung Lunda and Luba states . Further east, the Arab-Swahili trade also deprives these polities of the trade on which they are dependent. The emergence of numerous small-scale chiefdoms results in the production of new forms of ornate and luxurious courtly arts across Central Africa. Elsewhere, extended periods of migration in present-day Gabon and political consolidation in modern Cameroon lead to the development of new forms of funerary and courtly art. The European partition of Africa in 1884 provides state support for German, Belgian, English, and Portuguese expeditions into Central Africa that supply newly created ethnographic museums and geographic societies with specimens of material culture from the region.

The people concentrated in the southwest and northwest provincesaround Buea and Bamendause standard English and "pidgin," as well as their local languages. In the three northern provincesAdamaoua, north, and far northeither French or Fulfulde, the language of the Fulani, is widely spoken. Elsewhere, French is the principal second language, although pidgin and some local languages such as Ewondo, the dialect of a Beti clan from the Yaounde area, also are widely spoken.

Search: search tips sitemap (c) Robert Borofsky (Webmaster, 2004) Current Anthropology Adams, Robert McC. Anthropological Perspectives on Ancient Trade. Current Anthropology Sep., 1974 Vol. 15(3):239-258 Adams identifies two streams of archeological research on the process of trade. The first is limited to documenting the fact of culture contact but offers little reconstruction. He recognizes that technological advances will be required before questions related to broader social implications of trade can be answered. He gives much greater attention to studies with a stated concern with the process and structural impacts of diffusion or trade. Adams argues that archeologists should make greater use of ethno-historic, historic and ethnographic studies which offer a more complete picture of the complexity of trade and how institutional change is an important part of trade.

A survey of indigenous land tenure in sub-Saharan Africa John Nelson Policy Advisor, Forest Peoples Programme, and Projects Coordinator, Forest Peoples Project. INTRODUCTION CUSTOMARY LAND TENURE analogy holds: rights can be distributed across many different parcels of land for different purposes, and even though most of the rights cannot be sold, they are often divisible, individual rights transferring easily between individuals or groups. This system of validation and exchange is underpinned by the maintenance of social relations between the different groups who are involved, including indigenous peoples, many of whom face social discrimination from society and the state. THE ROOTS OF STATE LAW State land law in Africa springs from several European legal traditions, which came into force during the colonial era, and which take legal precedence over customary principles in the eyes of states, even though most landholding and transfer in rural Africa has continued to be arbitrated by customary authorities. Briefly, three main juridical traditions form the basis for state land law across sub-Saharan Africa, and their geographical application is directly related to the systems imposed by the colonial powers (after Lynch and Talbott, 1993; Lavigne-Delville, 2000; McAuslan, 2000). These include: English Common Law in countries such as Kenya, Malawi, the United Republic of Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia, which incorporates principles of divided rights of ownership and the separation of what is owned from the physical substance of the land itself;
