Understanding Swahili cultures. Some critical remarks.

Athman, Athman Hussein January 1995 (has links)
East Afiica and in particular the coastal region has been attractive for many researchers from the colonial period to the present times.

Their findings were then compiled in the form of books and theses which today form the basis of our reference.
