Distribution of Principal Ethnic Groups Source: Based on information from Jan Vansina, Introduction a l'ethnographie du Congo , Kinshasa, 1966. Northwestern and north-central Zaire, more specifically the subregions of Ubangi and Mongala in Équateur Region, have been occupied by speakers of the eastern section of the Adamawa-Eastern language family since their arrival in the seventeenth or eighteenth century (see fig. 9 ). They are classed into three major ethnic groups, namely the Ngbandi, the Ngbaka, and the Bandaspeaking groups (of which the Mbanja are the most important). Conflicts and migrations have dispersed these groups to some degree; the Mbanja in particular do not occupy a contiguous territory. Northeastern Zaire, specifically in the subregion of Bas-Uele and the northern portions of Haut-Ueleboth in Haut-Zaïreis peopled by a heterogeneous group called the Zande, also speakers of the eastern section of the Adamawa-Eastern language family. The Zande are sometimes divided into two sections: to the east, the Vungara and to the west, the Bandiya. Each section has taken its name from the clan providing the ruling house in the areas included in it. The Vungara are the larger of the two, and the following sketch has been based on data from them. The Zande emerged as a people in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries when groups of hunters, probably divided into an aristocracy called the Vungara and commoners called the Mbomu, penetrated the area and subjugated the Bantu-speaking and AdamawaEastern -speaking peoples they found there. The dynamic of the conquest was influenced by the rules of succession to the monarchy among the Vungara. A man took his father's throne only when he had vanquished those of his brothers who chose to compete for it. One or more of the losing brothers, a prince or princes without land or people, then undertook to find and rule a previously unconquered people. This process continued through the nineteenth century until a large area and a wide assortment of peoples had been dominated by the Zande Vungara. The outcome was a rich mixture of the cultures of conqueror and conquered.

Home Biography Gallery Bibliography/Reviews ... Contact Art and Ethnography By Keith Morrison Originally published in Art of the Americas: Art and Ethnography (San Francisco: M.H. de Young Memorial Museum, 1998) My installation of art and ethnology tries to show how the arts of different people and different times reflect their ethnology, regardless of their cultures - even those that are Eurocentric. My thesis is that all art is inherently ethnological. Focusing on the theme of music and using art selected from the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum's permanent collection, I try to show how music is manifested differently in different cultures, or at different times in the same culture's history. I have augmented the installation with several of my own paintings that use music as a theme. One of the objects I have chosen to redefine as art is a drum from the Ngbaka people of Northern Zaire (Democratic Republic of Congo), an object the M.H. de Young Museum exhibits as ethnographic. The drum simultaneously can be a musical instrument and a work of art. Whereas Western artists often make art objects to describe or illustrate life, cultures such as the Ngbaka make the object of expression-such as the drum- one and the same as the art. We all know that drums are among the oldest instruments, common to practically every culture. The drum, worldwide, looks much the same: a conical, cylin- drical, convex, or concave tube with a bald flat top that you beat with your hand or a stick. Drums have been used by many cultures not only to make music, but also to make sounds and sonic codes. The drum is a primordial instrument of transition from sound to rhythm. When asked where jazz might end, Dizzy Gillespie replied, "Where it began, with someone playing a drum."

General Context of the Transboundary Activity The rationale for the creation of the Sangha River Trinational initiative is based on biological, economic, social, historical, and institutional factors, as well as ever-changing international and regional conservation strategies. No one factor on its own provides sufficient reason for an undertaking as complicated as a transboundary approach in a region characterized by problematic politics and economics, but all the factors together strongly support a more regional approach to conservation and sustainable management of natural resources. This case study provides an overview of issues and topics impacting the existing protected areas, followed by a synopsis of how these different factors interact to justify a transboundary conservation approach in the Sangha River region. A . Geography The Sangha River Trinational region falls within the tropical forests of the western Congo River basin. The Sangha River forms the international boundary between Cameroon and its neighbors Congo and the Central African Republic (

The Former Kingdoms The western bantou are at the origin of more Ancient kingdoms in Democratic Republic of Congo, the most known is the Kongo kingdom (15th century) and the other one is probably the Kuba kingdom (17th century). The oriental bantou began with the kingdoms Luba (16th century) and Lunda (17th century). The Kongo, Lunda, Luba, and Kuba state systems shared certain common features, I.The Kongo kingdom The Kongo Kingdom was the first state on the west coast of Central Africa to come into contact with Europeans. Portuguese sailors under Diogo Cao landed at the mouth of the Congo River in 1482 . Cao traveled from Portugal to Kongo and back several times during the 1480s, bringing missionaries to the Kongo court and taking Kongo nobles to Portugal in 1485. In the 1490s, the king of Kongo asked Portugal for missionaries and technical assistance in exchange for ivory and other desirable items, such as slaves and copperwares a relationship, ultimately detrimental to the Kongo, which continued for centuries. Competition over the slave trade had repercussions far beyond the boundaries of Kongo society. Slave-trading activities created powerful vested interests among both Africans and foreigners; the Portuguese and later the Dutch, French, British, and Arabs.

The Government tacitly approved the actions taken by the police squad to reduce armed robbery; it never has prosecuted members of the security forces for these extrajudicial killings. Police and security forces are immune from prosecution for extrajudicial killings. On February 5, armed bandits attacked a vehicle transporting religious personnel, killing one nun and wounding another (see Sections 1.c, 2.d., and 5).

Welcome Antiques Masks Personal Items ... About Us TRIBAL INFORMATION Baule Dan-Guerre Gilbert Islands Guro ... Zande Mangbetu BAULE The Baule belong to the Akan peoples who inhabit Ghana and Ivory Coast. Three hundred years ago the Baule people migrated westward from Ghana when the Asante rose to power. The tale of how they broke away from the Asante has been preserved in their oral traditions. During the Asante rise to power the Baule queen, Aura Poku, was in direct competition with the current Asante king. When the Asante prevailed, the queen led her people away to the land they now occupy. The male descendant of Aura Poku still lives in the palace she established and is honored by the Baule as their nominal king. The Baule are noted for their fine wooden sculpture, particularly for their ritual statuettes representing ghosts or spirits; these, as well as carved ceremonial masks are associated with the ancestor cult. Baule art is sophisticated and stylistically diverse. Baule have types of sculpture that none of the other Akan peoples possess: masks (which, like their low-relief doors, seem to indicate Senufo influence) and human figures, apparently sometimes used as ancestor figures. The figures and human masks, the latter reported to be portraits used in commemorating the dead, are elegantwell polished, with elaborate hairdressings and scarification. More roughly finished are the gbekre figures, representing minor divinities in human form with animal heads. Masks are made also to represent the spirits of the bush: antelope, bush cow, elephant, monkey, and leopard. Boxes for the mouse oracle (in which sticks are disturbed by a live mouse, to give the augury) are unique to the Baule.

Zaire Thomas Turner and Sandra W. Meditz, Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress September 9, 1994, Data as of December 1993 INTRODUCTION ZAIRE HAS LONG BEEN CONSIDERED SIGNIFICANT because of its location, its resources, its potential, and (perhaps paradoxically) because of its weakness. The country has been at the center of a number of crises over the years, most notably following independence, during the Congo crisis of the 1960s, when there was a threat of the Cold War spilling over and heating up in Central Africa. Again in the 1990s, Zaire is threatening to become a source of international instability. Zaire's importance is to some extent geopolitical. It borders on no fewer than nine other states. These countries range from Arab-dominated Sudan in the north, to Angola in the south. Hence, in defending its borders Zaire canand hasbecome entangled in political rivalries extending all the way from Libya and Egypt to South Africa, i.e., the length of the continent. During the 1990s, Zaire's borders with Angola and especially Rwanda have been international flash points. Indigenous developments laid the groundwork for what has become Zaire. Well before Europeans arrived in the fifteenth century, the indigenous peoples had developed iron-working and long-distance trade. Large states had emerged, notably among the Kongo and Luba peoples of the southern savannas. Artistic traditions that have become world renowned had begun, particularly in the areas of sculpture, weaving, and music.
