Abstract: | The Chagga live on the slopes of the great mountain Kilimanjaro. This has coloured their history, which is detailed, involved and complex, the sum of the individualistic histories of each tiny long-settled part of the mountain. This short survey of their history is published in a special number on Kilimanjaro and is followed by two more articles on the Chagga: Chagga folklore. Translated extracts from B. Gutmann; and Chagga customs, beliefs and traditions by Chief P.I. Marealle (p. 56-61). |
