Extractions: Fourth Grade - Visual Arts - Overview - April The Visual Arts lessons for the month of April follow the History lessons, centering on the arts of Ancient and Medieval Africa. The first lesson looks at some artworks of Kush (ancient Nubia) and Axum in East Africa. Students recall some of the tombs of Ancient Egypt, which they studied in First Grade; historians now know that many of these massive structures come from the civilization of Ancient Nubia. The students also look at a stele from Axum as well as churches carved out of rock under the Christian King Lalibela. In the Third Lesson, the students look at artworks from the three West African Medieval kingdoms of Ghana, Mali, and Songhay, concentrating on masks and headdresses that either represent animals or incorporate human and animal aspects together. They then create their own masks or headdresses in the style they have observed. Finally, the students look at some of the sculpture that was done at the height of the cultures of the cities of Ife and Benin, especially the cast bronze heads that honor kings and royal families. They learn that these strikingly naturalistic sculptures were made to honor kings and the ancestors of kings. They were placed on altars or shrines, which the students make in honor of their own ancestral families, by constructing simple dioramas with symbolic objects and images brought from home.

Extractions: Revenue is derived from taxes on land, rent paid by concession companies, a capitation or hut tax on natives, and customs receipts, supplemented by a subvention from France. In addition to defraying the military expenses, about £100,000 a year, a grant of £28,000 yearly was made up to 1906 by the French chambers towards the civil expensP~. In 907 the budget of the Congo balanced at about £250,000 without the aid of this subvention, in i~O9 the chambers sanctioned a loan for the colony of £840,000, guaranteed by France and to he applied to the establishment of administrative stations and public works.

Extractions: Before judging to what degree the reality corresponds to these expectations, it is advisable to examine all the favorable factors. A Guinean proverb observes that the balafon player tests his instrument, verifies its tone quality, and tries out his rhythms before playing his showpiece. An analysis of Guinea's basic geography, demography, ethnography, and history makes it easier to understand the hopes, resentments, vacillations, and decisions of its people. Lands and Peoples Guinea's diverse cultural areas in the hinterland reflect fairly closely its administrative and geographic divisions. Indeed, its variations in altitude and the diversity of its climates and vegetation divide Guinea into four natural regions which, by and large, correspond to its major tribes . The country derives its wealth from the wide range of its mineral, agricultural, animal, and human resources.

Extractions: Guinea's climate varies throughout the different areas (see item no. 13). The coastal region has a monsoon climate with high temperatures throughout the year and heavy rainfall during the period from May to October, but virtually no rain during the rest of the year. Conakry has an average annual rainfall of 430 cm, of which 130 cm falls during July, making the highest monthly rainfall figure for West Africa. The Fouta Djallon has a more pleasant tropical climate, with the altitude giving lower temperatures and rainfall which is more evenly distributed throughout the year (see item no. 12). In the southern highland area the rainfall is higher again, but is more evenly distributed, with only one or two drier months.

Extractions: V. List of Participants INTRODUCTION Between September 3-8, 1995, a conference on "Evangelization among the Indigenous Peoples of Asia" was held in Hua Hin, Thailand. Organized by the Office of Evangelization of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences, with the cooperation of the FABC Office for Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs, this consultation brought together 45 participants from 10 Asian countries to study issues related to the indigenous peoples of Asia. About one-third of the participants themselves belonged to indigenous peoples. Defined as "people who were living on their lands before settlers came from elsewhere, the new arrivals later becoming dominant through conquest, occupation, or settlement," Asian indigenous peoples are often referred to as "tribals," or "aborigines," terms which they reject as perpetuating stereotypes that picture them as primitive and backward. The Indian term adivasi, meaning "original peoples,'' is much more acceptable.

Basic Facts - Guinea For peoples like the Coiagui, baga, and Nalou as assimilation, based on the selfproclaimedcultural superiority of the French over the indigenous people. http://www.winne.com/Guinea2/BF-historical.htm
Extractions: The pre-colonial history of Guinea still remains rather incomplete. Though archaeological research in Guinea has not made much progress, evidence seems to indicate that the area has been continuously inhabited by hunting-gathering populations for at least the past 30,000 years. It also seems probable that farming has been practiced in the area of Guinea for at least the past 3000 years. There is considerable evidence that iron smelting dates back 2000 years in this part of West Africa. But until further archaeological evidence is forthcoming, much of the early history of Guinea remains conjectural. The pre-colonial history of Guinea becomes much clearer from about 900 A.D. as sources in Arabic and oral traditions become available. Travelers' accounts in Arabic and professional history keepers' oral narratives offer information on the genealogies of royal families and traditions of ethnic groups who lived in Guinea in the past millennium. For peoples like the Coiagui, Baga, and Nalou, who now live on the Atlantic Coast, ethnological evidence supports the view that they lived in the area of modern Guinea even before the Christian era. For these tribes living along the coast there was little outside migrational pressure. Their political development was minimal as they existed in a loose confederation of proximitous family groupings up and down the coast. Their staple crop was rice, introduced from the Niger River Basin in the first century A.D.

Extractions: Conakry In the early nineteenth century a string of small islands lay strewn at the end of Sangareya bay. Tumbo, the easternmost island, was near the Kaloum peninsula and dotted with villages inhabited by fishermen. One of them was destined for bigger and better things. Why did the hamlet of Konakiri, rather than the neighboring communities of Bolobine, Krutown or Tumbo, become Conakry, Guinea's future capital? Nearby the villa "Belle Brise" stood across from what eventually became the Friacompany's aluminum port. One of the city's most beautiful colonial mansions, it still exists today and once housed the office of indigenous affairs. Today Belle Brise, its shutters curiously, permanently closed, is the Rumanian embassy. A bit further south stood the late-nineteenth-century governor's palace, which became the presidential palace in 1958. It was torn down, and the new palace is still under construction. The building site's scaffolding can be made out from far away. Bolbine, now known as Boulbinet, is at the western end of the island's southern coast. It was the site of a deep cove the villagers used as a fishing port and is still the city's largest. Tumbo was across from the isthmus and land's end. Two trails through the forest, which was once very dense and home to beasts of prey and monkeys, connected Tumbo to Boulbinet and the facilities to the northwest.

Extractions: Baker Book House GORDON HOLMES FRASER Former chancellor of Southwestern School of Missions, an institution which he founded and which combines an Indian Bible institute, a Navajo language school, and a missionary training school. It is located in Flagstaff, Arizona. He has studied at University of Oregon, University of California, California Baptist Theological Seminary, and Northern Arizona University (B.S. in anthropology, M.A. in the teaching of English as a second language). Born in Quebec in 1898, Fraser has made a lifetime study of primitive religions and tribal languages. One of the most unavoidable problems faced by evolutionists at the turn of the century was that of the origin of religion. If the concept of evolution was valid, religion must also have evolved. Andrew Lang, the Scottish ethnologist and folklorist who was one of the evolutionists' most vocal antagonists, defined their problem: Variously stated by Darwin, Huxley, Mr. Herbert Spencer, and the manual-makers, the current hypothesis is this; beginning with the idea of human souls, or ghosts, and their propitiation, mankind, by ascending the steps of fetishes, departmental gods, nature gods, and polytheism generally, climbed to a conception of a Supreme Being. The advance of society to aristocracy and monarchy made it natural to imagine a heavenly Olympian aristocracythe higher gods of polytheismor a supreme being, a sort of heavenly king. In its earlier savage stages according to the hypothesis, religion is non-moral, lending little or no sanction to ethics.

Extractions: Robert Leopold / Prescriptive Alliance and Ritual Collaboration in Loma Society Chapter 2 THE LOMA PEOPLE The Loma are a Mande-speaking people who practice swidden agriculture in a mountainous, sparsely populated region astride the border between Guinea and Liberia. Within the two countries there are perhaps 250,000 Loma, and despite regional variation in custom and dialect, dissimilar histories of colonization, and the political border that now crosses their landscape, Loma on both sides maintain frequent social relations and a sense of common identity. The Loma are members of the Central West Atlantic culture area, an ethnically plural and linguistically diverse region that lies within the littoral forest zone bounded by the Scarcies River and Cape Palmas (d'Azevedo 1962). Within this complex region ethnic groups of the Mande, Kwa and Mel language families are present and their members often comprise a significant portion of Loma towns. Along the southern and western boundaries of the Loma area the Mel-speaking Kuwaa (Belle) and southern Mande-speaking Bandi are found; to the northwest live the Kwa-speaking Kissi. To the north and east the Loma region is bounded by the Kuranko, Konyaka and Malinke, speakers of northern Mande languages; while the Kpelle, a southern-Mande speaking people, live to the southeast. A common history of ethnic movement, warfare, long-distance trade and political alliance has contributed to an extraordinary degree of heterogeneity that is one of the region's principal social and cultural features (d'Azevedo 1962, 1971).

Extractions: Harborview Medical Center, Seattle, WA The following talk was presented at the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease Conference on March 1-2, 1996 in Chicago, IL. We are here to focus on tuberculosis screening. However, I am not working in TB control per se. I am a general internist who provides primary care in an inner-city clinic where I see a large number of people who have recently immigrated from Africa and Asia. The relevance of that experience for TB screening and the management of active cases is based on my familiarity with communication and management issues relevant to diagnosis and treatment of disease across the linguistic and cultural differences between biomedicine and non-western cultures. The Refugee Clinic is now 14 years old. It serves the Asian and African refugee communities in Seattle, Washington. The clinic began in 1982 after the large influx of Southeast Asian refugees into Seattle, and has continued to care for each subsequent wave of arrivals. We now see about 6,000 patients a year in Harborview Medical Center, a tertiary care referral center and teaching hospital in the University of Washington system. Our clinic provides general internal medicine, family medicine, psychiatric services, and oriental medicine for patients from 13 distinct linguistic groups.
