Abstract
This work has been done in the territory where citizens in the past have been denied not only the
freedom of movement but also the free practice of their own culture. In some instances they have
been imposed to practice the imported or the culture of the master. Taking into account the selfdetermination
achieved in 1 990, Namibia has been working for the reconstruction of the really
autochthonous cultural histo ry of the Nation.
We know that this work is done in difficult condition, despite the willingness and motivation of
the Government to assist. The financial means at the disposal of those who are involved in the
research of this nature are scarce, when the grant is there, it does not sometimes cover the cost
of the all project. Since independence, the Government has embarked upon many reforms and
projects in its different institutions. Thus, it makes it difficult for culture storage endeavours to be
completed within a short period.
