22. Aaronc - African Religions
A short overview of the many Traditional Religions practiced among people of differing cultural, linguistic, and ethnic groups; gives names for the supreme deity in many african languages; part of a larger site on polytheism.
http://jpdawson.com/modrelg/relafri.html
African Traditional Religions The Bushmen and Hottentots live in southern Africa and were the original inhabitants of the land when the first Europeans arrived at the Cape. Today the true Bushmen (Khoisan) are restricted to the Kalahari Desert and Namibia. Modern Bushmen pray to celestial spirits and tell myths and legends about them. They pay special attention to the moon, which comes into their speculations about the origins of death, a common African preoccupation. The Hottentots have largely become Christian and most of their ancient religious beliefs have disappeared, so much so that it was once thought that they had no former religion. Their ancient gods appear to have been a mingling of natural forces and ancestral spirits. In the sub-Saharan and forest areas there are small groups of Hamites (Caucasians, related to Europeans) such as the Fulani of Nigeria, but they are Muslims like the major Hamite groups of North Africa and the Tuaregs of the Sahara. A vast majority of Africans south of the Sahara are Negroes, and they generally have a belief in a supreme being, though their conception of his role in daily life differs according to localities. Despite the universality of belief in a supreme being in Africa regular worship is not generally given to him. There are no great temples or organized cults for him in most places, though there are a few exceptions. Yet despite this absence of formal worship and temples over most of Africa, the supreme being (or God) is a reality to many people. He is transcendent and there is a popular myth, told from West African to the Upper Nile, which says that he or the sky his dwelling place was once much nearer to the earth.

The University of California system has a number of African languages specialists on its faculty and several campuses offer African language instruction in scheduled classes or as directed studies tutorials. Over the years, African languages that students have been able to study at the University of California number in the dozens. To share some of their expertise in African languages, University of California faculty members have begun creating web sites on languages in which they specialize. The faculty hope to add to these sites continually. The links below will take you to the sites now available. For more information on African studies at the University of California, visit the sites below.

CHRISTEN KERKE VAN GOD
(SUID-AFRIKA)
“Die Christen Kerke van God is een van die omvangrykste publiseerders van geleerde godsdienstige werke van die Kerke van God op die Internet”. (The Journal, vol 1, no 1, bl.7) “En hierdie evangelie van die koninkryk sal verkondig word in die hele wêreld tot ’n getuienis vir al die nasies; en dan sal die einde kom.” (Matt.24:14)

Die doel van die Christen Kerke van God is om deeglik nagevorste artikels van hoë internasionale gehalte oor die oorspronklike christelike geloof aan alle nasies en tale beskikbaar te stel om sodoende bybelkennis wêreldwyd te verdiep. Die Christen Kerke van God koester dieselfde geloof as wat Christus en die Apostels twee millennia gelede aan die wêreld verkondig het, voordat dit met heidense leerstellings en mensgemaakte filosofie vermeng is en sy krag verloor het. VOORWAARDES: Die artikels mag kosteloos gekopieer en versprei word mits dit in sy geheel geskied, sonder veranderings of weglatings. Die naam van die uitgewer en die kopiereg moet vermeld word. Geen betaling mag van die ontvangers van die artikels geëis word nie. Kort aanhalings in resensies en oorsigte word toegestaan sonder om die kopiereg te skend nie.

    The Department's Mission is to achieve and maintain academic and scholarly excellence in both research and teaching of African Languages and literature.
    With African culture as its wider research area, the Department's activities are therefore integral to the cultural development of the nation at large particularly in areas of language and cultural knowledge. Both the Department's academic staff and students consider indigenous linguistic and literary knowledge in its various forums as significant contributory factors to the nation's sustainable development and therefore are committed to improve the Department's activities in this respect Although its aim is to end up teaching all languages of Zimbabwe as well as including some other African languages outside Zimbabwe, at present the Department is focusing on Shona and Ndebele which have a biggest number of speakers. The two languages especially Shona are widely spoken in all provinces in Zimbabwe

    African languages
    The African continent differs from all others by the very large number of its indigenous languages. Estimates range from 700 to 3000 different languages and dialects. Such a high number testifies to the high degree of isolation in which the respective communities developed their specific languages.
