‎"Mufumbiro" - The Birunga Volcanoes of Kigezi - Ruanda-Kivu - 04‎

‎Title: "Mufumbiro": The Birunga Volcanoes of Kigezi-Ruanda-Kivu. Author: J. E. T. Philipps Publisher: London: Edward Stanford, Royal Geographical Society, 1923. Item is in Original Condition, with Blue Wrappers - As Issued, Complete with All the Ads! Notes & Condition: Featuring a firsthand sighting of the now critically endangered mountain gorilla of Rwanda, fascinating observations of isolated tribes and in particular their religious customs, vivid descriptions of little-travelled mountain regions, and commentary on volcanic eruptions, British commissioner of the Kigezi district of Uganda, Captain Philipps recounts an expedition to the Virunga Mountains which he made in 1919. Also pertaining to the various indigenous tribes, he describes native homesteads enclosed in euphorbia fences at the foot of the mushroom like craters in the lava plains of lakes Buleru-Ruhondo, inhabitants of the sub-district of Mlera, the system for cattle quarantine on a northern islet of lake Bunyoni, and so forth. Some local vocabulary is translated. Some of the wild game of the Birunga range, described herein, includes the now highly endangered gorilla, the lion, the buffalo, the hippopotamus, and the profusely hunted red Duiker antelope. The most comprehensive view of the volcanoes, Philipps states, was from a small hill where the Belgian post of Ruchuru was situated, however the most impressive view was in the British district of Kigezi, from the lip of the Behungi ridge. His account imparts much geographical detail on the volcanic wonders lying in Kigezi, as well as hot springs, and the Kigezi caves near Muhavura, Ruanda, and Kivu. As a colonial administrator, naturally, he further assesses the political boundaries within. Interesting to note, this account was published four years after his journey, and only a few months before the League of Nations granted Belgium the right to govern Rwanda, on 31 August 1923. Philipps wrote a 'classified' report in 1919 in which he described the secret societies of Africa and the Nyabingi practice. 8vo. 26 pages including in-text sketch maps, plus additional photographic plates for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. [The University of Massachusetts Amherst holds letters written by Philipps in respect to his colonial administration in Uganda and Rwanda.] Excerpt from the text: "The Ruanda language, probably the most difficult of the Bantu tongues, is not spoken outside the Urundi-Ruanda plateau. Incidentally there does not exist even now any Enlgish-KinyaRuanda interpreter, black or white. There is little communication between the plateau and the lowlands... Arab slavers and alien raiders equally failed to penetrate this realm..." "The only road from British territory thus climbs the Behungi hill through bamboo forests..." "According to native tradition, almost unanimous among the three tribes at the western end of the range, major eruptions in the Birunga occur at a cycle of eight years... two violent explosions... in November 1920, when a part of the southern wall of the Kwerunga crater was blown out..." "Regarding gorillas: In March 1919, when about the 13,000-feet level on Mount Muhavura... I saw emerge from a thicket of hagenia trees and lobelia... two large hairy heads... The chest... black and bare... enormous apes. over six feet in height, and of enormous girth... standing fairly erect... they prepared to descend over a short cliff. At the edge the male appeared to assist the female with his arm... No knowledge then existed as to the presence of gorilla in British territory... the Duke of Mecklenburg's expedition in 1905 failed to obtain confirmation of the presence of gorilla in the Birunga [Virunga] range... I am inclined to think that this is at present the only district within the Empire where gorilla are known to exist..." "The Sultan of Ruanda is in a sense a personification of the deit Imana... The spirit of man is believed to remain dormant and inoperative until after death... The pontiff is the Liangombe, apotheosized hero-kin, protector of mankind against malevolent spirits... " "The BaChigga tribesmen of Kigezi and Ruanda... at their harvest-home... indulge in wild drinking orgies, often lasting three or four nights and days and accompanied by a species of Dionysiac rites. Murders at this point are frequent..." End Excerpt. The Mufumbiro volcanoes consist of a chain of imposing cones that rise out of the lava plain of the western rift in the extreme south-west of Uganda. The mountain range is made up of volcanic highlands over 1,500 meters, which was often referred to as "the Roof of Africa", and where some of the ultimate sources of the Congo and the Nile were found.‎

‎The Life of the Icelander Jon Olfasson: Traveller to India Written by himself and completed about 1661 AD with a continuation by Another Hand up to his Death in 1679‎

‎2 volumes: xxxiv238pp with frontispiece and 2 other plates 3 maps of which 2 are foldouts1 chart and index list of works by the society at end; xxx290pp with frontispiece and 2 other plates and index. Octavo 9" x 6" issued in blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine and pictorial representation of the ship Victoria on the cover decorative blind stamp to covers. Translated and edited from the <i>Icelandic edition</i> of Sigfus Blondal by Betrtha S Phillpotts. Works issued by the Hakluyt Society Second Series Numbers 53 and 68. First edition.<br /><br />The autobiography of Jon Olafsson Traveler to the Indies remained unprinted in Icelandic save for a few excerpts until 1908-9 when an edition by Sigfus Blondal Librarian to the Royal Library was published in Copenhagen by the Icelandic Literary Society. The text in this edition which was based on a scholarly collation of the extant MMS. has been implicitly followed in the English translation. The life of Jon Olafsson falls into three parts; or perhaps more properly since only the first two parts are written by himself into two parts and an appendix. The first part opening with his childhood and youth in the remote north-west of Iceland his voyage to England in 1615 and his brief stay in that country has for its main subject his experiences as gunner's mate in Copenhagen and on various Northern voyages in the service of King Christian IV. It is this part which is comprised in the present volume. The second part edited by the Hakluyt Society deals with Jon Olafsson's voyage to India in 1622 his life as a member of the Danish garrison in the fort at Tranquebaar and the voyage home in 1624-5 a terrible record of privation in a rudderless vessel; his stay with other survivors at Youghal in Ireland and his return to Copenhagen towards the end of the year which had seen Christian IV's ill-fated entry into the Thirty Years' War. The autobiographical part ends with his return to Iceland in the Spring of 1626. It is followed by an account of the remainder of his life probably composed by someone in the household of Magnus Magnusson sheriff of Isafjoro Jon's native country--possibly the sheriff himself--and ending with Jon's death in 1679 in his eighty-fifth year. This third part is of value for the full account of the raid on the Barbary corsairs on Iceland in 1627.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Spine ends moderately rubbed volume II spine lightly sunned else a very good set.
