Excavation in progress in Chikwawa<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

To the untrained eye, the small objects the men would now and again spot and pick from the wet ground as they moved forward in formation made no sense.\u00a0\u00a0But to the eagle-eyed team from the Department of Museums and Monuments, the objects they were looking for would provide vital information about the area and people who once inhabited it.\u00a0\u00a0Pieces from broken earthenware and other tools people who lived in the area used would be collected and later taken to the laboratory for analysis.<\/p>\n

And somewhat bizarrely, the research the four professionals were conducting concerned what is one of Malawi\u2019s biggest development projects\u2014the Shire Valley Transformation Project (SVTP).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have lost many cultural heritage sites in Malawi because of development projects,\u201d the team leader Dr. Oris Malijani, told reporters in Chikwawa, justifying the work his department was doing for SVTP.<\/p>\n

Dr Malijani said: \u201cWhat this [irrigation] project has done is what all developers ought to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many people are familiar with Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), a process that is done before a development project is implemented, but seldom does one hear of cultural heritage impact assessment.\u00a0\u00a0Although not many people are aware it, cultural heritage impact assessment is as important as EIA when implementing a development project.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhenever there is a development project, especially big projects, according to the Monuments Relics Act, there is always a need to conduct a cultural heritage impact assessment,\u201d Dr. Malijani said.<\/p>\n

The Monuments Relics Act Malawi requires that all development initiatives must ensure that from planning stages to implementation, all monuments and relics are protected.\u00a0\u00a0And in compliance with the Act, the SVTP engaged the Department of Monuments and Museums who have been conducting a cultural heritage impact assessment since 2016. \u00a0The three-phased, 14-year SVTP is the biggest irrigation project not only in Malawi, but the whole sub-Saharan Africa. It was launched in March 2020.\u00a0\u00a0Phase one is currently underway and will cost $223 million. The World Bank, African Development Bank, Malawi Government, and Global Environment Facility are the funders.<\/p>\n

The multibillion-Kwacha scheme targets smallholder farmers in Chikwawa and Nsanje districts. About\u00a0 \u00a0223,000 people in 48, 400 households in the two districts will benefit from the project.\u00a0\u00a0The scheme will irrigate 43,000 hectares of land by extracting water from the Shire River at Kapichira Dam and conveying it by gravity to the irrigable areas in Chikwawa and Nsanje districts through canals.\u00a0\u00a0The main canal will be more than 100 kilometers in length, starting from the intake at Kapichira Dam to Bangula in Nsanje, passing through some areas that have a rich cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe SVTP is a very big project and its main canal will cover a distance of more than 130 kilometers,\u201d Dr. Stanley Khaila, SVTP Acting Coordinator, said.<\/p>\n

Dr. Khaila said there was a long history with a rich cultural heritage in the footprint of the project, and that there was a high probability that the project would impact it as construction works continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is therefore important to involve the Department of Museums and Monuments to rescue such cultural materials in sites where they are found in order to preserve them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

At the time of researching for this article, 19 sites had been identified, according to Dr. Malijani, Principal Geo-Archeologist responsible for research in the Department of Museums and Monuments.\u00a0\u00a0Mabvuto, Supuni, Thuboyi 1 and 2, Saliva, Kholosi, Mwanza, Kadinga 1, 2 and 3, Mandrade and Magamba spiritual site are some of the areas where the archeological sites have been identified.<\/p>\n

Dr. Malijani said the identified sites fell within the path of the canal and they gave recommendations to SVTP, one of which was to salvage the sites and conserve them for posterity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are here to provide mitigation measures on how best to manage these heritage resources so that they should not be affected by the canal development,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Dr. Malijani was speaking to reporters at Fombe Village in the area of Traditional Authority (TA) Kasisi in Chikwawa where his team was carrying out what he called controlled excavations at one of the 19 sites.\u00a0\u00a0At Fombe, the team discovered a concentration of pottery and iron implements, among other items.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere we are working with local communities to rescue archeological findings so that they can later be analyzed, processed and kept at our national repository at Nguludi,\u201d Dr. Malijani said.<\/p>\n

One eye-catching sight which is close to the path of the canal is a shrine in form of a baobab tree where locals still go to perform rites.\u00a0\u00a0Under the tree are various items including a wooden gun, broken clay pots, metal plates, coins, a gourd, clothes and bones.\u00a0\u00a0People took the items to the shrine, which is located in the area of Group Village Headman Supuni, TA Katunga in Chikwawa as offerings to get rid of problems that were tormenting them.<\/p>\n

TA Katunga in a telephone interview acknowledged the existence of the baobab shrine in Supuni Village and what people seeking help do there. However, he said he had never been there.\u00a0\u00a0Locals said the practice of taking offerings to the shrine has been done for ages when either a person or community is in problems, and that the offerings were intended to pacify spirits of the dead.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe practice has been there from time immemorial,\u201d TA Ndakwera of Chikwawa told this writer in a telephone interview. \u201cWe perform it when there is no rain or when something is troubling you.\u201d<\/p>\n

When going to the shrine one has to observe strict laid down rules. For example, the wearing of trousers is forbidden and you are only allowed to sit on a special traditional stool and not a chair.\u00a0\u00a0On the cultural heritage impact assessment exercise itself, TA Ndakwera expressed happiness that the SVTP had taken measures to protect things that locals considered to be of cultural value.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat government has done is good. We need to preserve our cultural heritage for posterity. If we don\u2019t, future generations will not know how we lived,\u201d he said.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dr. Malijani appealed to all developers in the country to adhere to the Museums and Relics Act and a cultural policy that safeguards and promotes all archeological, historical and cultural sites in Malawi.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past we have lost a number of cultural heritage sites because most of the consultants, especially environmental and social consultants, used to forgo the heritage aspect,\u201d Dr Malijani said.<\/p>\n

He said cultural heritage was part of the general environment and therefore should to be treated equally and with the seriousness it deserved.\u00a0\u00a0It was a pity, he said, that the majority of people were not aware of the importance of the cultural heritage sites. Some of them had historical, social, economic and educational values, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, we need development, but development needs to be done in a sustainable way without compromising or destroying the natural and cultural environment,\u201d Dr. Malijani said.<\/p>\n

He said all development projects should be preceded by a cultural heritage assessment as one of the important aspects in EIA.\u00a0\u00a0Dr. Malijani made a passionate plea to the media in the country to help raise awareness so that Malawians should start appreciating the country\u2019s cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to appreciate our history because a tree without roots is nothing. We need to know where we are coming from so that we should be able to plan for where we are going in the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Dr. Malijani said: \u201cSo cultural heritage is very important.\u201d<\/p>\n
