Some observations on the prehistory of the Buvuma island group of Lake Victoria
2021 | 1967
Mcfarlane, M.
During the early part of 1967, a short expedition was made to Buvuma and neighbouring islands, primarily as part of a study of the relationship of laterite to landscape development. The characteristic island skyline of flat laterite capped hills is typical of Buganda topography, a topography which has been the source of much discussion (Pallister 1960, etc). The drowning of the topography by Lake Victoria, which left the laterite mesas as islands standing above the lake, has resulted in a particularly attractivevariant of the typical Buganda scene.
