African Ethnicities Please note that I have a separate page available on African languages A number of Web pages have been produced by members of indigenous minority and majority ethnic groups world-wide. Rather than primarily serving as academic, encyclopedic, or anthropological resources, they are often self-promotional, but several provide excellent information and rigorous documentation. This is a small collection of such pages produced primarily by Africans, along with some material produced by others. Most often, these African ethnic group home pages are a direct expression of individual members of the group, but in several cases represent an academic, official, or institutional point of view. If you are looking for an "objective" presentation, these links may not be the best sources for your work. Nevertheless, most have very good cultural, historical, and other background information, and many provide links to related sites that you may also find useful. Below the list, there is a collection of Other sites with information on African ethnic groups with different kinds of resources, for example, with a national, cultural anthropological, or linguistic focus.

43. HISTORY OF THE SUKUMA Though generally a peaceful people, the sukuma in the 1870s fought to turn the interests of the indigenous people to aim at purely African institutions http://fizzylogic.com/wasukuma/history.html

HISTORY OF THE SUKUMA European penetration of the East African hinterland dates from little more than 100 years ago. Colonial administration commenced formerly in 1890, but effective control in local areas required a decade or two more for its accomplishment. In its entirety the era ended with the independence of Tanganyika in 1961, Uganda in 1962, and Kenya and Zanzibar in 1963. The European presence- whatever its accomplishments or failures, advantages or drawbacks-both forced and attracted East Africa abruptly into the modern world. THE SUKUMA Details of Sukuma origins are obscure. Available evidence suggests that the tribe as it exists today a conglomeration of disparate, indigenous. Bantu- speaking clans, overlaid with immigrant Hima (Nilo - Hamitic) stock. The migrants, who were Voluntarily accepted as chiefs after their arrival, made their way around the West Side of Lake Victoria from Uganda and farther north between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. Perhaps because it represents one geographical extreme of this Migration, the Sukuma amalgam is virtually complete physically and culturally. Rigid differentiation does not exist as in some other inter-lacustrine tribes: most Sukuma believe they are at least distant relatives of former chiefs. The individual chiefdom, rather than the tribe, was traditionally the primary focus of loyalty above the most local community of homesteads like the Soga of Uganda, the Sukuma were a multi- kingdom collection of more or less autonomous chieftaincies. Approximately fifty in number, these were ruled by chiefs possessing magic-religious as well as political powers. The necessity for a fundamentally approving consensus on the part of the people, and certain privileges and sanctions enjoyed by groups within the traditional political order limited the autocratic tendencies of chiefs. Principal among these groups were electors (bananghoma) who were relatives of the royal line but themselves ineligible for office, leaders of the elders (Banamhala), and leaders of the young men (basumba batale).

View of the grounds of the Sukuma museum, Bujora village E xercising the "self-enclosure" and classification of the museum institution, the Sukuma Museum provides the visitor with a representation of Sukuma life. As we move through the museum, we are able to walk past and inside structures of traditional Sukuma history. The installations of the Museum are thematically organized with all facets of "traditional" Sukuma life represented: the royal, the sacred and the quotidian. The museum visitor is able to visit a representation of a traditional Sukuma house and compound, the thatched dwellings of a Sukuma blacksmith, a replica of a traditional doctor's house and a Royal Pavilion for Sukuma royal history and Dance Society Pavilion for the history of Sukuma dance. Prominently situated at the far end of the compound, the Bujora Church is placed on the crest of the hill that overlooks the entire grounds and surrounding area of Lake Victoria. A Short Tour of the Sukuma Museum A s we enter the Sukuma "homestead," we are able to walk through a traditional style dwelling and view objects of daily life such as cooking utensils, religious objects and hunting and agricultural implements. Moving to the Balongo (blacksmith) house, a round structure thatched from top to bottom, we must duck our heads to enter the three foot high door. Once inside we can view the objects used by the Sukuma blacksmith, such as the cowskin bellows and large stones used during forging, as well as the agricultural hoes and spear heads that are made by the blacksmith. The next building on our tour is the Royal Pavilion where objects representing the history of the Sukuma royal families are exhibited. We will tour both this structure later in greater depth. Opposite the Royal Pavilion and near the Sukuma "homestead" is the

Sukuma Culture and Tanzania by Mark H.C. Bessire T he Sukuma culture is the largest in Tanzania. In many ways, the Sukuma are experiencing a renewed interest in traditional culture. Some think that the strength of this movement is found in the reconciliation of the modern and traditional. Cultural traditions appear to be spreading through contemporary means and not as a contest between the old and the new. Sukuma traditional arts and culture are thriving as much as the economic growth in the region. T anzania has accelerated its movement toward democracy, increased its communication networks, and opened its economy to the world. This has influenced the traditional culture of the Sukuma. While many Sukuma remain in small villages, others move to cities and assimilate to the urban society which is a combination of many different cultures and international influences. Possibly to renew awareness in Sukuma culture, identity and history, some people provide cultural leadership through a mix of traditional and modern culture. This movement reflects an increased interest in utamuduni or traditional culture, which lies in the dynamic social and political changes that are currently spreading through Usukuma. Today, a revival of Sukuma culture is taking place among traditional doctors, chiefs, artists, and dancers. A s the Tanzanian government has shifted from state controlled socialism to capitalism, it has created a more mobile work force and a diversification of employment opportunities. Many Sukuma are still farmers, merchants, builders and traditional doctors; but, in today's economy, there are also working in the communications, health, shipping, transportation, mining and banking sectors. Mwanza, the city center of Usukuma, is one of the largest and fastest growing urban areas in Tanzania. While most of Usukuma is rural and many live in the countryside, people throughout the country and central Africa are flocking to Mwanza to find work in one of the many emerging economic industries.

A BIBLIOGRAPHY ON SUKUMA AND NYAMWEZI CULTURE AND SOCIETY Joseph L. Mbele St. Olaf College I have been compiling this bibliography in the course of research on the folklore of the Sukuma and Nyamwezi of Tanzania, which I began in 1993. This was part of my research on Tanzania's Epic Folklore, which was funded by Earthwatch, an affiliate of the Center for Field Research, based in Massachussetts. The Sukuma and Nyamwezi, who are often assumed to be essentially the same people, are among the most well-studied of Tanzania's ethnic groups. For over a hundred years, there has been a continuous stream of books, articles, manuscripts, theses and dissertations on this group in various languages, but notably in Swahili, English, German, French and Sukuma. These writings cover the history, culture, economic and social life of these people. My focus in this bibliography is on folklore and culture in general. I have therefore included works on subjects such as language. Some of the works I have included in this bilbiography may not strike other people as belonging in it. The Sukuma and Nyamwezi may safely be considered close enough to be discussed together, but I have included entries on neighbouring groups such as the Kara and the Kerewe, who live on islands in Lake Victoria. I think they have enough in common with the Sukuma to warrant their inclusion in this bibliography. Such choices are difficult for anybody trying to create a bibliography of this nature. There are materials I have not included in this bibliography, for example sections in various books, most of which I probaby do not even know about. There are also typescripts and manuscripts which I have not even heard about. It is more than likely that such materials exist, in such places as the White Fathers' Archives in Rome, Oxford House in England, and perhaps in Canada as well, since the priests who set up the Sukuma Museum at Bujora, near Mwanza, came from Canada. Though this is a rather comprehensive bibliography for the period it covers, I know that some more work needs to be done to make it even better.

Archives Shinyanga: Falling in Love Shinyanga: Falling in Love Shinyanga: Falling in Love with the Sukuma People with the Sukuma People with the Sukuma People by David A. Smith Despite having been ordained now for eleven years and having worked all that time in the Diocese of Shinyanga, I am still the youngest Maryknoll priest or brother in the diocese. Of the Maryknoll Missionaries mentioned in this informal history, I have been privileged to know but a few. Therefore, in endeavoring to present the Society's history for the past forty-two years in this region, I cannot draw much from my personal experience but rather can only relate that which I have been told by others. In a sense this is the traditional African approach to history: the elders gather the children around the fire at night and narrate for them the history of events that have made them a proud people. Like a faithful scrivener, I herein endeavor to record the stories of Maryknoll that I have been told by my elders. THE 1950S: MARYKNOLL GIVES LIFE TO AN INFANT CHURCH It was in October of 1954 that Lou Bayless, Joe Brannigan, Al Schiavone, John Rudin, and Edward (Eppie) James began Maryknoll's missionary work among the Sukuma people of Shinyanga. Al and John went to Kilulu Parish, while Lou and Eppie started at Busanda and were shortly thereafter joined by Maurice Zerr. For the first year, they lived with White Fathers. In mid-1955, Lou received two assistants at Busanda: newly ordained Donald Sybertz and Philip Sheerin. The White Fathers at Buhangija were joined by James L. Lenihan, Al Smidlein, and Edward McGurkin.

Archives Musoma: The Land of the 12 Tribes Musoma: The Land of the 12 Tribes Musoma: The Land of the 12 Tribes by Michael Snyder INTRODUCTION The history of the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America (Maryknoll) in Musoma began on 21 October, 1946 when Frs. William Collins, Albert Good, Joseph Brannigan and Louis Bayless stepped off the Lake Steamer at Musoma town, then climbed a lorry for the nine mile trek to Nyegina Mission. Fifty years have passed and over 100 Maryknoll priests, brothers, priest associates, and lay associates have placed their hands to the plow participating in the missionary effort of the Catholic Church in present day Musoma Diocese. What I am about to present is a brief summary of the major aspects of the Society's effort in this portion of Tanzania. So, while I do mention some names, to attempt to describe the efforts of each individual would be a task beyond my capability and to elaborate on just a few would be an injustice to others. THE EARLY YEARS The first four missionaries and the others who followed in those early years kept themselves closely aligned with the pastoral praxis of the Missionaries of Africa, more popularly known as the White Fathers. This was the Society which preceded Maryknoll in Musoma, arriving there in 1911. Upon our arrival in 1946, there were only two missions existing: Nyegina, already mentioned, and Kowak, which was located some 25 miles north of the Mara River.

The ancient in-migration of Cushitic, Nilotic, and Bantu peoples, displacing the native San-type population, resulted in a complex agglomeration of tribal communities practicing complementary forms of pastoral and agricultural livelihoods. In the last 500 years, Portuguese, Arab, Indian, German, and British traders and colonists have added to the mosaic. Today Tanzania's multiethnic and multiracial population practices a mixture of traditions and customs that form a valuable cultural heritage.

Tanzania Africa PEOPLE Population distribution in Tanzania is extremely uneven. Density varies from 1 person per square kilometer (3 per sq. mi.) in arid regions to 51 per square kilometer (133 per sq. mi.) in the mainland's well-watered highlands to 134 per square kilometer (347 per sq. mi.) on Zanzibar. More than 80% of the population is rural. Dar es Salaam is the capital and largest city; Dodoma, located in the center of Tanzania, has been designated the new capital and the Parliament sits there, although action to move the capital has stalled. The African population consists of more than 120 ethnic groups, of which the Sukuma, Haya, Nyakyusa, Nyamwezi, and Chaga have more than 1 million members. The majority of Tanzanians, including such large tribes as the Sukuma and the Nyamwezi, are of Bantu stock. Groups of Nilotic or related origin include the nomadic Masai and the Luo, both of which are found in greater numbers in neighboring Kenya. Two small groups speak languages of the Khoisan family peculiar to the Bushman and Hottentot peoples. Cushitic-speaking peoples, originally from the Ethiopian highlands, reside in a few areas of Tanzania.

The outcome of the 14 days study tour and the seminar can be described like an explosion of ideas, commitments, cooperation’s and - a lot of fun. I wonder what will become of this amazing networking between cities and municipalities in the Lake Victoria and the Baltic Sea Regions. The idea of a World Championship in Cooperation was presented at the Globetree Yearly Globeday in October. I recall the hours I sat in a working group together with children - this initiative definitely opens up a flood of the most amazing ideas!

Inheritance of Institutions or a Second Colonial Occupation: The Case of Uganda References cited Introduction Nowadays it is common among anthropologists to integrate aspects of history and colonialism in their ethnographic accounts. This can present us with a new, fruitful understanding regarding ethnicity and identity formation. However, this approach is not unchained from problems or implications. To highlight this ambiguity, the first section of my paper discusses colonial processes in relation to ethnicity and the concepts of primordialism and constructionalism. Ethnographic examples are taken from Africa as well as from India. Further, in the context of some eurocentric imaginations the second section discusses aspects of modernity and tradition, of global processes and local responses. Finally, with examples from Uganda the third section discusses what is sometimes described as the postcolonial situation par excellence in Africa: the colonial inheritance and the alienation of the state from the actual society.
