Current Reviews Previous Reviews Summer 1998 TRIBAL ARTS HOME FORUM LETTERS CLASSIFIEDS ... GALLERIES Art and Heritage in West Africa By Barbara E. Frank. Published in English by the Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington and London, 1998. Hardcover; $45. T his impressive study approaches two crafts among the Mande peoples of West Africa. Here, pottery making is an exclusively female pursuit, while leatherworking is dominated by males. The author explores the two in depth, producing a valuable contribution to the scholarship of West African culture and, at the same time, demonstrating how craft technology in addition to artistic style is essential for reconstructing and comprehending the artistic heritage of a culturally complex region. In examining the roles of these craftspeople in the rise and fall of empires, the development of trans-Saharan trade networks, and the spread of Islam, the author brings into question the "one-tribe, one-style" interpretations that have dominated studies of West African art. back Native Paths: American Indian Art from the Collection of Charles and Valerie Diker Edited by Alan Wardwell.

Tracey's contributions as a primary researcher and field recorder are standing the test of time. His "Sound of Africa" series issued 210 recordings, published by the International Library of African Music (ILAM), which he had founded. These CDs are reissued recordings selected from that series and offer a glimpse of what has until now been mostly available only in academic archives. Tracey's work began with the Shona of Zimbabwe but expanded far beyond that region of Africa. It was a remarkable time for Africa, as it shifted or prepared to shift from its history as colonized territories. In their own way, Tracey's recordings also document the history of recording machines used for remote fieldwork. Tracey's first, in the 1930s, involved a clockwork-powered machine that cut a groove in an aluminum disc. Not till much later did he attain stereo recording capability with a Nagra. His microphone technique was to seek out the sound he wanted, hand holding the microphone to capture a spontaneous field mix that comes through superbly on these recordings. Tracey, it seems, sought to capture and document a cross-section of society in the tribal villages, schools, workplaces and anywhere else he found music. That wasn't always the most proficient performer.

Within that context all the following extracts from importantly divergent and as yet unreconciled recently published interpretations of ancient data have their legitimate place but, although a proper understanding of them is, I believe, directly relavant to human life today and throughout the third millennium, their true meaning is unlikely to be sufficiently discerned so long as they continue to be discussed only in isolation from each other! In other words, as King Hussein of Jordan so wisely appreciated, if ever we are confronted by enmity, that challenge is, I+N Truth, always an important part of our own responsibility.

6. GodOrigins Working on Others' beliefs and holocausts is like daring to have another religion in life ' It's Jews ol' time religion, else be crucified. http://www.sweetsassyass.com/GodOrigins.html

Working on Others' ABOVE all humans, all lifeforms. To rule the world, as it was back then, hatefule Hebes murdered and manipulated (creationism) mankind make selves masters. Wandering territory seekers WHY Hebrews have always been despised. They HOLY HOLOCAUSTED healthily happy humans' natural deities, then ferociously forced them to worship only Jews; continues on today, as wonderful judio-cristiano wars so Scripturally showeth. The Hebrew account of the Garden of Eden is well known to most people however facts point to the core of that popular Hebrew story as having been lifted straight from Sumerian legend. And the story may well have roots dating back long before the Sumerian civilization. Sumerian goddess, Ninhursag, also known as "exalted lady" is given the credit for bringing the green plants to the earth and for creating humans. This ancient "Mother Nature" brought to life a place called Dilmun, reputed as the true Paradise of the Gods. Many scholars, Zecharia Sitchin among them, believe that this Dilmum, if not the original garden, was at least the basis from which the Hebrews scholars borrowed in forming their scriptural stories of Eden. In this Dilmum, a special "land of the living," Ninhursag nutured the original plants of the earth and her garden was also the center from which flowed all the waters of the world. Sumerians believed that Dilmun was located "somewhere to the east" and they hailed it as "a pure land, fresh and bright, that knows neither sickness or death": the very qualities which are attributed to the Garden of Eden both being places of seemingly immortal life and fantastic occurences.
