The Nama of Namibia: A Guide to an Exhibition

The Nama of Namibia: A Guide to an Exhibition

"The long over-due representation of the Nama in Namibian museums formed the primary motivation to develop this exhibition as part of a larger exhibition titled "Hunter-gatherers & Nomads in Sand and Ice Deserts", which was made available on loan to the National Museum of Namibia for two years in 2005. In the past, the Nama have been sadly neglected in Namibian museum displays as very few traditional Nama objects made their way into local museums. Instead they were assembled in overseas museums during the 19th and early 20th centuries, where few Namibians are able to view them . . . "
