This history program is about understanding the history of man as well as the ancient history of our country. The first program is about the meaning, sources and importance of history. Hope you will enjoy it. After watching this lesson, you should be able to explain the terms history and recording, describe historical sources which are found in East Africa, and the importance of history to man's life. What complicated question is that? Just ask your father. Okay, Daddy, what is the meaning of history? Do you know the meaning of history? Okay, right. History is a record of human activities in Nigeria. And these activities are those human used in order to survive from their earliest years. The activities we are talking about, this includes the plants our ancestors made for obtaining basic necessities such as foodi, shelter, and clothes. They made fire for cooking foodi and for warning themselves. They made implements with metal objects with which they could hunt and protect themselves. And they used materials from their local environment to make clothes to wear and to build structures for shelter and protection from wild animals and the elements of the nature. You can hear a number of meaning of history, but this is the best one. That sounds like a hard one. I am so glad they did that for us. You are right, my daughter. They made a way smooth so that you can get a better life. And you have a good respect for me. Various ways of its main historical information. And what of it is museum, isn't it? Ya, you are right. When you come to the museum, you can visit a lot of things as you have seen here. And in Tanzania we got a lot of museum, but we have the small one and we have the big one. It's like in Karenga-Iringa, we have also in Bujora Mwanza and here we are in the National Museum of Tanzania and this is House of Kacha Museum. So we are dealing with a lot of things. We have also Village Museum, we have Memorial Majumaj Museum, we have Decoration Museum in Yaroosha and also we have Memorial Mnirere Museum in Butiam. So as we see here, we have a lot of things. We can see like we have this different mask built by Womakonde and also we have like science and technology. We have this bicycle that's made by wood and also we have things to use those who are smoking and doing some, some like using a tobacco and so on. And also we have here the building, this is it from Moabena and this is original from Yringa. So when you visit the museum, you can find a lot of things, first you enjoy, you entertain and you get education. So that is... Akioloji is the other source of historical information. It is the start of remains referring to fossils and bonds of human beings. The tools they made and left behind after they passed on. Historical sites are the areas where ruins of physical structures and drawings can be observed. For example, places like Kilwa, Kondwa-Irangi and Ibagamoyo in Tanzania. Other sources of historical information include archives, written records and anthropology, which is the start of humans in the context of their life. I also use it for my work in the kuchimbea where there are many places to live with the kuchipi. It's different in the kuchimbea because they have many places to eat, because there are few places where they have to eat because they have no menu because they have food but the kuchipi are places where they have to eat. Another source of historical information is oral tradition. It is a valuable method to spread historical information by word of mouth through storytelling, narration, poems, and proverbs. These are passed from one generation to the other generation. Usually from the older generation to the young ones. The importance of history as a subject is it helps us to cognize the past, present, and predict for the future. History gives an explanation about the historical changes taking place in production relations and it helps us to appreciate what has been done by our forefathers. For example, the model that our nation founding father led Julius Nyerere left for us to follow. For example, you can see those are the cars which were used by Muallim Julius Nyerere. Viewers, thank you for watching our program on the meaning, sources, and importance of history. We look forward to have your campan next time.
