Description
"District medical work, Portuguese East Africa." "Lomweland" ❧ Photograph of a visit by medical workers, an open chest of medical supplies, bowls, boxes of bandages and bottles and jars sit in the foreground. Behind sit a number of native men and women, several of whom have been treated. Behind the group can be seen two huts with steep thatched roofs and beyond a crop of maize or corn. ❧ Lomweland was part of Portuguese East Africa [Mozambique] and the first Church of Scotland mission was established in Mihecani [1913] south east of the Numali hills near Alto Moloque. This was where Lewis Mataka Bandawe translated the New Testement into Lomwe ❧ This image belongs to an album of photographs collected by Dr. Stevenson and includes images from India, China and Africa.
