"...les membres des multiples groupes ethniques autochtones, les « gens de la terre » (tengdemba), les nakombse détenant le pouvoir politique, les tengdemba étant les détenteurs du pouvoir religieux lié à la terre (culte de la fertilité et rites funéraires). so maybe even priestly custodians here See this translated abstract: http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/25133648?uid=3738232&u... Les thématiques de la maîtrise de la terre, de l'appartenance à des sociétés initiatiques ou secrètes ont longtemps été étudiées sur des terrains ruraux. Au moment où, pour des raisons légitimes, l'anthropologie urbaine a tendance à focaliser son attention sur les dynamiques de la globalisation ou sur les phénomènes d'innovations technologiques, il importe de montrer à quel point l'organisation sociale d'une ville moyenne ouest-africaine telle que Koudougou (Burkina Faso) passe encore par le local et par son histoire. Cet article se propose d'analyser le rôle des outils spirituels et politiques dans l'élaboration de cette communauté politique, et de mesurer leur importance de nos jours après plusieurs situations de crise. Cette réflexion sur la fondation d'une communauté qui, peu à peu, s'est urbanisée et est devenue un collectif d'appartenance, renvoie aussi à des questions organisationnelles et politiques propres au regroupement des hommes lors des premiers peuplements d'une région. /// The use of cultural resources can provide a key for understanding politics in an urban agglomeration and unraveling the intricate conflicts and shifting discourses having to do with its history. The cultural resources related to the group who founded Koudougou, Burkina Faso's third largest city, resurfaced during crises there. Earth custodians (priests) and membership in secret (initiation) societies are topics that have been long studied in rural areas. Now that the prevailing trend in urban anthropology is, quite rightly, focusing on the momentum of globalization and technological innovation, it is important to show to what degree the social organization of a middle-sized city in west Africa involves local factors and history. Analyzing the importance of spiritual and political tools in shaping a political community is indispensable for understanding the city. Studying the foundation of a community gradually urbanized and transformed in a collectivity of belonging raises place of organizational and political questions related to the groups formed by the first settlers in the area. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2013-08-17 09:33:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- here the Tengbemba were in charge of land fertility http://belemissa_xif3.voila.net/page2/index.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2013-08-17 09:36:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- so maybe, ceremonial/ritual or priestly custodianship of land -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2013-08-17 09:37:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://books.google.ie/books?id=HcGKD2CY94UC&pg=PA26&lpg=PA2... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2013-08-17 09:42:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- though in your text, these are not merely sacred lands I think they are custodians of the land in the American Indian sense so while people live in villages, fertility rites etc are performed for the land -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 hrs (2013-08-17 15:39:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- yes, it may be necessary to substitute parcels/areas/plots/patches of (custodial) land or pieces of ground...being cared for/used and subdivided... |
