Swahili origins: Swahili culture & the Shungwaya phenomenon

---

James de Vere Allen's Swahili Origins: Swahili Culture & the Shungwaya Phenomenon is a comprehensive study of the history, culture, ethnic identity, and development of Swahili people in East Africa. Allen traces the origins of Swahili civilization and examines theories and historical evidence for the Shungwaya phenomenon—a concept influential in narratives of Swahili migration and group identity. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the book combines archaeological, linguistic, and ethnohistorical findings to illuminate the connections between Swahili coastal communities and the African, Arab, and Indian Ocean worlds. It is an essential reference work for studies of ethnicity, East African history, and Indian Ocean littoral studies.
