| Rural settlements and farms of Uganda
were photographed from low flying light aircraft in
1963. ( A few areas were missed for reason of logistics
or lack of flight permission: including the foothills
of the Ruwenzori mountains in far western Uganda and
the area along the border with Kenya from Mount Elgon
north to Moroto, Karamoja in the east.)
The landscapes are shown in some
detail, and include houses, granaries, crops in
field, occasionally livestock and corrals. Photographs,
with limited annotation, were compiled into a
catalog; The West Nile images shown here are from that
catalog. Aerial views are often confusing so to clarify
them ground based views of houses, granaries and
other items from neighboring settlements of the same
cultures have been added.
