The Uses and Misuses of Ethnohistory
The Uses and Misuses of Ethnohistory The term ethnohistory, so widely used today by historians, anthropologists, and sociologists, is probably the cause of as much confusion as illumination, and as much misapplication as precision. This does not have to be so. Surely much of the confusion is the result of a penchant to define ethnohistory as a subject per se, rather than as a methodology.I The problem of adequate definition is therefore important…
The Slave Trade in Nineteenth Century Temneland and the British Sphere of Influence
For centuries nearly every European who visited Sierra Leone was struck by the great potential for trade to which the area seemed geographically suited. Caravans from Kankan and Segu, and even from as far away as Bamako and Timbuctu, came down through Siguri and Faranah, passed through the dispersal points inland of the forest at Timbo, Bunban, and Samaia, and carried the gold, ivory, hides, and produce of the interior down to the tidewater towns…

Colonial Rule in Africa
In a review published in this journal last year, this writer noted that the forthcoming volumes of the series Colonialism in Africa 1870190, edited by Messrs Gann and Duignan, were anticipated with sane confidence that they would maintain the scholarship and continuity of the first volume. Now the second volume of this ambitious series has appeared, and once again we are faced with a compendium: an anthology of some fourteen pieces all written by…
Ethnohistory and Political Change
There is a reluctance on the part of many historians to use theoretical models for research, especially for ethnohistorical work, which is both unfortunate and unjustified. Much of the recent work in social anthropology and political science has been of great historical value precisely because the use of theory has rendered studies with an otherwise narrow scope more general in application. It is the intention of this article to examine some tech…

Innovation and Change in Mende Chieftaincy 1880–1896
This article deals with the evolution of centralized chieftainship in response to changing conditions in a part of Sierra Leone where such organized political controls had not previously been necessary. The transformation which characterized the last decades of the nineteenth century in the Mende chiefdoms of what is now Kailahun District was largely a response to war and invasion. Prior to the 1880s, ‘Upper-Mendeland’ had been little more than a…
