    May 1996 Report
    This report was received from Robert Bell on Monday, June 17, 1996
    Preamble
    We're trying a new format this month, (now that I'm in control) so let me know what you think. There have been several complaints that this is late, but probably the monthly report will come out regularly within 8-12 days from the end of the month. It takes a while to prepare...

    The sanitation project has yet to be started. My priority right now is to find an engineer or engineers to help do an study. The engineering study can then be used to help Stuart look for money back in Canada. Also, I am trying to find funding here for the engineers or to find local engineers who are willing to trade engineering work for computer support.

    Hilda is one of the four nuns who lives here in the Barrio. She is from Costa Rica and is basically the "grandmother" of the bunch. She is always giving you cookies or chocolates or something at the house. She cooks for the nuns and takes care of the house. Also, she teaches a knitting and crochet course in the Barrio. Her birthday was just this past week and we had a small party, just before Stuart left. We sang "Happy Birthday" in English and had cake and ice cream. Just like at home....

    Social Studies Welcome to the world of social studies! This will in no doubt be your favorite year of social studies ever! We will be immersing ourselves into the ancient cultures of the world, along with some modern world geography, so get ready! Click on any titles below to see a detailed description of the unit. The units we will be covering this year are: Unit 1: Culture and Maps and Globes
    We kick off the year with a unit on culture. The students study components of other cultures. They also write an article about what our culture might look like to someone who had never seen some aspects of it, like hockey, getting braces, surfing the Internet, etc.
    We then move into our maps and globes unit. The students use classroom atlases tostudy terminology such as longitude, latitude, legend and compass rose. The students also get to try their hand at using scale and creating a map to scale of their route to school. This unit's comprehensive project has students take a trip around the world with three of their classmates. For their project, they create a Power Point presentation of their "trip" that not only includes geography of the places they visited but also culture of the cities they traveled to.

    It's June, the start of the much anticipated travel season. And as savvy travelers, we're busy planning trips to enchanting and intriguing destinations. Topographical maps, hiking gear, and camping equipment decorate our table tops. But before you delve into this issue of Fair Grounds or embark on your own summer excursions, take a moment to think about ecotourism. Conventional guide books or even adventurous travel references don't often mention the effects that travel can have on our fragile global ecosystem. At Café Campesino, our house rules are 1) to preserve and conserve, reuse and reduce; and 2) to live as a democracy and love the earth and all its inhabitants. The latter is where ecotourism serves as our guiding principle.
    We encourage you to travel with zeal this year and continue to embrace foreign cultures. But as you do, remember that your actions can have consequences on the environment. Tread lightly on the land. The planet will thank you for it.

Discussion Forum Do you have an opinion about this page? Make it known on the Discussion Forum By the sixth century, three states had emerged as the political and cultural heirs of the Meroitic kingdom. Nobatia in the north, also known as Ballanah, had its capital at Faras, in what is now Egypt; the central kingdom, Muqurra, was centered at Dunqulah, the old city on the Nile about 150 kilometers south of modern Dunqulah; and Alwa, in the heartland of old Meroe in the south, had its capital at Sawba. In all three kingdoms, warrior aristocracies ruled Meroitic populations from royal courts where functionaries bore Greek titles in emulation of the Byzantine court. The emergence of Christianity reopened channels to Mediterranean civilization and renewed Nubia's cultural and ideological ties to Egypt. The church encouraged literacy in Nubia through its Egyptian-trained clergy and in its monastic and cathedral schools. The use of Greek in liturgy eventually gave way to the Nubian language, which was written using an indigenous alphabet that combined elements of the old Meroitic and Coptic scripts. Coptic, however, often appeared in ecclesiastical and secular circles. Additionally, early inscriptions have indicated a continuing knowledge of colloquial Greek in Nubia as late as the twelfth century. After the seventh century, Arabic gained importance in the Nubian kingdoms, especially as a medium for commerce.

    History
    Early History
    Northeast Sudan, called Nubia in ancient times, was colonized (c.2000 B.C. ) by Egypt as far as the fourth cataract of the Nile (near modern Karima). From the 8th cent. B.C. to the 4th cent. A.D. this region was ruled by the Cush kingdom, centered first at Napata (near the fourth cataract) and after c.600 B.C. at (between the fifth and sixth cataracts). From c.750 to c.650 B.C. Most of the inhabitants of Nubia were converted to Coptic Christianity in the 6th cent. A.D. , and by the 8th cent. three states flourished in the area. These states long resisted invasions from Egypt, which had come under Muslim rule in the 7th cent. However, from the 13th to the 15th cent. the region was increasingly infiltrated by peoples from the north; the states collapsed, and Nubia gradually became Muslim. The southern part of the modern Sudan continued to adhere to traditional African beliefs. Much of the north was ruled by the Muslim state of Funj from the 16th cent. until 1821, when it was conquered by armies sent by Muhammad Ali of Egypt.

    The Egyptian nobleman Harkuf , who lived around 2300 BC during the 6th Egyptian dynasty, is thought to be the first documented explorer. He led expeditions up the Nile to the land of Yam (southern Nubia). The first Egyptian boats were built from reeds lashed together to create a concave-shaped structure. Around 2700 BC, the Egyptians began constructing wooden sailing ships made from Lebanese cedar wood. Egyptian sea voyages are recorded in hieroglyphics dating back to 3200 BC!
