Post Civil War History Persian and Arab traders established business contacts with east Africans over 1,000 years ago. These relations, coupled with refugees who fled the turmoil in Arabia after the death of Muhammad in the 7 th century, resulted in a significant number of Arab immigrants residing on the coast of east Africa. The mixing of the coastal Bantu-speaking African peoples with these Arab immigrants led to the emergence of the Swahili people and language. The Swahili people lived and worked for the next seven centuries with the indigenous African population. During this time, the Swahili people expanded their trade and communication further inland and to the south with the other African groups, including ancestral tribes of the Somali Bantu. Colonial Period By the time the Portuguese arrived in the 15 th century, there existed a modern economy and advanced society on the east coast of Africa that some claim rivaled those in Europe. Portuguese colonial rule, however, disrupted the traditional local economic networks on the east African coast, resulting in a general breakdown of the once prosperous Swahili economy.

Museums Archive Number 32 June Solstice 1999 ESSAY NEWS NOTES PUBLICATIONS AND WEB SITES Sub-Saharan Africa: Cultural Astronomy's Heart of Darkness by Keith Snedegar, Political Science and History Dept., Utah Valley State College There is no more deeply primeval experience than to gaze overhead at the Milky Way arching from horizon to horizon on a pitch-dark African night. And with good reason: our species originated in Africa; it was from there that our ancestors first looked up and pondered the mysteries of the cosmos. It should strike everyone as odd, then, that cultural astronomers have paid relatively little attention to Africa. The eve of a new millennium is an appropriate time to revisit, or for many of us to contemplate for the first time, the astronomical heritage of humanity's home continent before it is too late. Another well-known megalithic site, Namoratunga II, near Lake Turkana in Kenya may well have aided calendrical observations around 300 B.C. (Lynch and Robbins 1978). Unfortunately, in recent years no other Sub-Saharan monuments have been surveyed for their archaeoastronomical potential. Numerous sites merit such investigation: the Senegambian stone circles, the Central African Republic's Bouar megaliths, and ruins in the Great Zimbabwe tradition. With the prospect of discovery we should no doubt expect many negative results. I am personally skeptical that any alignments could be found in the irregular architecture of the Zimbabwe sites. At all events, someone should look for them. If only there were more copy cats of Lynch, Robbins and Malville than of high-school shootists!

The Prize, now in its 13th year, will be presented on April 22, 2002, at a San Francisco awards ceremony. Somalia is suffering from a decade of civil war, crippling drought and, now, the potential of being targeted as a haven for terrorists. Despite these challenges, Jibrell and her organization, Horn of Africa Relief and Development Organization, have organized across clans and regions to lead women and their families in promoting cooperative and careful use of fragile natural resources. A child of nomads, Jibrell eventually became an American citizen. She recently achieved a major victory by securing an enforced ban on the export of charcoal from the Puntland government in northeast Somalia. Before the ban, Puntland was being devastated by massive logging of old-growth acacia trees to produce charcoal for export to the Gulf States. While halting the "charcoal wars," Jibrell and Horn Relief have educated rural local communities on sustainable alternatives to charcoal production and helped them work together in peace.
