Home About Tanzania Map Northern Safaris ... Links Amidst this abundance of Natural Africa, there lives a vibrant population of Tanzanians, people drawn from over 120 distinct ethnic groups, each the proud custodian of a culture that traces it's history to North, South and West Africa, the Asian sub-continent and the Arabian peninsula. Tanzania's ethnic diversity provides an insight into the history of a continent at a time before history was written down, a community perspective on the soul of a country. Many of Tanzania's ethnic groups are now welcoming visitors into their communities, introducing them to the traditions and understandings of their people and their perceptions of the country around them. Guests are now trekking with Masai warriors amongst the wildlife and volcanoes of the Ngorongoro Highlands, hunting with bows and arrows alongside the Hadzabe Bushmen of the Rift Valley or learning traditional medicine on remote hillsides with the doctors of the WaMeru tribe. Along the Eastern Arc Mountains, community projects have formed to show guests around the farms, schools and homesteads of the numerous groups that live there, and elsewhere, opportunities to encounter fishing cultures, nomadic peoples, hunter-gatherer clans and wood-carving workshops ensure that those interested will always be gifted with that most privileged of insights into a country, through the eyes of its people.

Home About Tanzania Map Northern Safaris ... Western Highlands Swahili Coast Zanzibar Mountains Lakes Travel Tips ... Links Sponsored Links Swahili derives from an Arabic word meaning 'of the coast', and so it is that much of the Swahili language and culture trace their roots to the Indian Ocean coastline. Explorers, Sultans and Slave Traders all encountered Africa for the first time along this history-steeped coastline creating the events that were to define modern Tanzania, whilst the islands of the Zanzibar Archipelago were to become principal stepping stones for the culture that was to mould Tanzania's people and their language. The town of Kilwa can date its authoritative Islamic architecture to the 13th Century when it was one of the principal city-states of the Shirazi empire. Bagamoyo hosted Livingstone, Pasha and Speke, before they set off on their historical destinies and was named by the caravans of captives, who 'laid down their hearts' there before they were shipped to Zanzibar's slave markets. Pangani, Tanga and Dar es Salaam were all outposts for first the German and then the British colonial administrations - and the Great War that separated them.

Photo: Rob Busby Dear ArchitectureWeek, While traveling on the Serengeti Plain in Tanzania we visited a Masai village. The village is built in a circle with a large wall around it and several entrances. Every night the Masai bring all their cattle into the center of the village and close up the entrances to protect them from lions and other predators. The houses are built by the women of the tribe. They cut down trees that are found in groves scattered throughout the Serengeti. They shape their houses by weaving smaller branches between wood supports stuck into the ground. The women collect cow dung and use it as the surface material for the walls. This practice also serves to clean up the central area of the village. They use grasses and dung for the roof. The smell definitely takes some getting used to! The dwellings are built without a chimney for the kitchen fire. They must depend on the leaks in the walls for cross-ventilation. When a man gets married, his wife builds a home for them in his area of the village. When he marries again (he can have up to four wives), the next wife builds her home to the left of the first one. The next wife would then build her home to the right of the first one, and so forth.

REMEMBERING A BARRAGÁN LANDSCAPE In 1945, renowned Mexican architect Luis Barragán began work on the Gardens of El Pedregal, a subdivision in Mexico City dotted with plazas, fountains, ponds, cacti, and pepper trees. He considered El Pedregal his most important project, and critics have described the houses and gardens there as a turning point in Mexican modern architecture. Reflecting the fragility of public landscapes, many of these elements were long ago modified or destroyed. PATTERNS OF HOME Years ago, at the beginning of our professional careers, two of us were part of an effort to create a design language that was similar in many ways to what we are now calling "the patterns of home." In that work, A Pattern Language (1977), we and our colleagues at the Center for Environmental Structure in Berkeley defined over 200 design ideas, which we called patterns.

Comments on Sukuma Culture and Tanzania (made possible by Loquacious anonymously contributed on September 22, 1997. Congratulations on getting the Sukuma people and culture better known. As you mention, "the Sukuma culture is the largest in Tanzania." Yet here is some research I have done on "Books on Eastern African Ethnic Groups in the Library of Congress Database." While visiting the Library of Congress East African Office in Nairobi, Kenya in December, 1996, I checked the database for the Washington D.C. "holdings," that is, the numbers of books on East African Ethnic Groups in the Main Library of Congress Complex in Washington D.C. The results are as follows. Maasai Ethnic Group: 158 books Kikuyu " " 134 " Luo " " 96 " Galla " " 76 " Kamba " " 70 " Kuria " " 44  Oromo " " 42 " Sukuma " " 22 " Chagga " " 9 " What is striking is that the Maasai population is 883,000 compared to the Sukuma population of 5,000,000. See Ethnologue: Languages of the World, 13th Edition, 1966. Let us continue to help books, web sites, etc. on the Sukuma get better known. Contributed by Rev. Joseph G. Healey, M.M. (

52. Episode 07: Ambassador To Nyanzwa; Tanzania's Oral Culture (II Corinthians 520 NIV). Episode 07 Ambassador to Nyanzwa; tanzania's Oral culture. Oneof the key points covered was how much tanzania is an oral culture. http://easter.org/adavis/ep07/ep07.html

We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. (II Corinthians 5:20 NIV Episode 07: Ambassador to Nyanzwa; Tanzania's Oral Culture During my orientation week in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, I sat in on a lecture about Tanzanian culture. One of the key points covered was how much Tanzania is an oral culture. It was noted that very little information is given in written form, that people talk a lot, here, and that relationships with any and everyone are extremely important. The following days, I paid special attention to this aspect of the culture and realized how true it is. In the States, we are a very visual culture. Everything is communicated in writing. We get written notices for EVERYTHING and then some. But our culture is also extremely organized, and finding out information is relatively easy (except that we use so much paper, I wonder how many trees we go through in a day?). Click for bigger picture Classes are another example. Almost all of the professors grew up learning by memorization and so they write VERY LITTLE on the chalkboard. It was difficult to get used to.

Christianity and African Culture : Conservative German Protestant Missionaries in Tanzania, 1900-1940 (Studies of Religion in Africa, 14) Home History Books Africa by Klaus Fiedler See More Details Hardcover (August 1997) Brill Academic Publishers; ISBN: 9004104976 Reviews Book Description The common charge laid against missionaries that they are destroyers of African culture is shown to be untrue of the missionaries treated in this book, who worked with considerable success to integrate Christianity and African culture. The author examines the endeavours of the missionaries from the perspective of the local Christians, who were not themselves interested in Africanization as such. One can thus find some missionaries defending - against the elected African Church leadership - the right of the Chagga Christians to circumcise their daughters, and Nyakyusa Christians refusing to use African tunes because the missionaries - influenced by National Socialism - professed both love for African culture and White superiority. This informative book, based on local and archival research at Daressalam University, is eminently readable. It features the first historical study of Bruno Gutmann, and provides case study material for teaching. The author, Klaus Fiedler (fiedler@unima.wn.apc.org) , October 8, 1996
