  • the critical role played by the missionaries in the establishment and consolidation of colonial control in Africa. Our focus centered on the motives, practices, and processes of the collaborative hegemony (although not often successfully) imposed on African societies by missions and colonial rulers. The mutual linkages among missions, colonial state institutions, as well as the role of Africans in the remaking of African societies are well covered. To think of the intersection between evangelism, and colonial expansion across Africa, however, is not to state the obvious, but to explore the processes and outcomes of this partnership, including the conflicts of collaboration and the induction of some Africans as agents of imperial control. Understanding the nuances of collaboration and ambivalences that emerged also require us to acknowledge the wide scale use of language, imagery, technology, and European epistemology in legitimizing relations of inequality with Africans

  • vory has been desired since antiquity because its relative softness made it easy to carve into intricate decorative items for the very wealthy. 
  • uring the days of the Roman Empire, the ivory exported from Africa largely came from North African elephants.
  • As Portuguese navigators began exploring the West African coastline in the 1400s, they soon entered into the lucrative ivory trade, and other European sailors were not far behind

  • During these years, ivory was still acquired almost exclusively by African hunters, and as the demand continued, the elephant population near the coastlines declined
  • Between 1990 and 2000, the elephants in Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia, were added to Appendix II, which permits trade in ivory but requires an export permit to do it
  • As demand for ivory increased, elephant populations were decimated. In 1900, several African colonies passed game laws that limited hunting,
  • At Independence in the 1960s, most African countries maintained or increased colonial game legislation laws, either outlawing hunting or permitting it only with the purchase of expensive licenses. Poaching and the ivory trade continued, however
  • African and Arab traders of enslaved people traveled inland from the coast, purchased or hunted down large numbers of captives and ivory, and then forced the enslaved people to carry the ivory as they marched down to the coast. Once they reached the coast, the traders sold both the enslaved people and ivory for hefty profits.
  • Many argue, though, that any legitimate trade in ivory encourages poaching and adds a shield for it since illegal ivory can be publicly displayed once purchased. It looks the same as legitimate ivory, for which their continues to be relatively high demand for both Asian medicine and decorative objects.
