Lake Ngami, Or Explorations and Discoveries During Four Years' Wanderings in the Wilds of South Western Africa (Classic Reprint)

Category : Social Science

Pages : 656
Book Description
Excerpt from Lake Ngami, or Explorations and Discoveries During Four Years' Wanderings in the Wilds of South Western Africa The following Narrative of Explorations and Discoveries during four years in the wilds of the south-western parts of Africa, con tains an account of two expeditions in that continent between the years 1850 and 1854. In the first of these journeys, the countries of the Damaras (previously all but unknown in Europe) and of the Ovambo now a term incognita) were explored; in the second, the newly-discovered Lake Ngami, was reached by a route that had always been deemed impracticable. It is more than probable that this route (the shortest and best) will be adopted as the one by which commerce and civilization may eventually find their way to the Lake regions.

Hunter and Habitat in the Central Kalahari Desert
Author: George B. Silberbauer
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521235785
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
The Central Kalahari Game Reserve in Botswana is a sand desert covered by scrub and thorn forest, dry and bitterly cold in winter and extremely hot in summer before the short wet season. The only kinds of vegetation surviving this climate are short-lived annuals and deciduous species that lie dormant in the dry season. In this inhospitable territory live the hunter-gatherer G/wi bushmen. George Silberbauer has lived and worked among the G/wi for over ten years. In Hunter and Habitat, he analyses the ways in which G/wi society and culture have been shaped by the rugged natural environment. The book provides a thorough analysis of G/wi society, describing their social, political, and economic organization, their living patterns, subsistence technology, and seasonal adaptations. In short, Hunter and Habitat describes and elucidates the foundation of G/wi society: the interrelationships of the bushmen, their sociocultural system, and their habitat.
