Research in Mtwara Region

In the past the colonial administration system divided Tanganyika (Tanzania) into eight (8) provinces, a Southern Province that included the Ruvuma, Lindi, and Mtwara Regions with its headquarters in Lindi. It was in 1971 that Mtwara Region was established, the establishment of this Region was due to the Regional Power Plan administered by the first President of Tanzania Mwl.Julius.K. Nyerere, which was aimed at moving services to the people. 75% of the population of Mtwara Region is Wamakonde. Wayao and Wamakua are among the tribes found in this region. With our project fahari yetu Tanzania and the Iringa Boma Regional Museum, we managed to reach Mtwara for research purposes, Mikindani, Mtwara city, Tandahimba and Newala are some of the places we managed to reach during the research.

 

 

Research in Lindi Region

Lindi is one of the regions found in Tanzania, it is one of the oldest regions dating back to the 11th century in the history of Tanzania and East Africa in general. The history of Lindi Region is adorned with some of the areas located in the districts of the Region. The name Lindi means LONG PIT, Lindi Port was used to transport slaves from Lake Nyasa. 18th-century Arabs, Indians, Germans and British are among the nations that have succeeded in living in this region.

With our project fahari yetu Tanzania and the Iringa Boma Regional Museum were able to reach Lindi region for a study of archeology and indigenous tools used by the natives since 100 years ago. Lindi town, Kilwa Kipatimu (Nandete), Kilwa Kivinje, Kilwa Kisiwani Songo Mnara (ancient Arab city), Kilwa Masoko and Nchinga are some of the places we have successfully visited and researched in the Lindi region.
