Summary edit

Description
Nederlands: De Wageniavissers in de Lualaba dichtbij Kisangani.
  • De Wagenia (of Genya) zijn een volk dat vooral leeft van de visvangst in de Congorivier in de buurt van Kisangani. Ze hebben een unieke techniek ontwikkeld waarbij ze fuiken in het water gooien waarin de vissen gevangen worden. Deze fuiken worden vanop stellingen, gemaakt van takken, uitgezet. De stellingen zijn in de vorm van driepoten. Met een ongelooflijke behendigheid kruipen ze over de stellingen om deze fuiken op de goede plaatsen uit te zetten, te repareren of te vergroten. Gedigitaliseerde dia.
English: The Boyoma Falls rapids/cataracts of the Lualaba River — near Kisangani, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
  • The Wagenya peoples are indigenous fishermen who have developed a unique technique to fish in the river. They build a huge system of wooden tripods across the river. These tripods are anchored on the holes naturally carved in the rock by the water current. To these tripods are anchored large baskets, which are lowered in the rapids to “sieve” the waters for fish. It is a very selective fishing method, as these baskets are quite big and only large fish are entrapped.
Français : Les pêcheurs Wagenia au fleuve Congo près de Kisangani.
  • Les Wagenia ( ou Wagenya ou Genya) sont un peuple de pêcheurs du bassin du fleuve Lualaba en amont de Kisangani. Ils ont développé une technique unique au monde lançant des échafaudages de maigres troncs assemblés par des lianes au dessus des rapides. Avec une incroyable agilité, ils parcourent ce dispositif pour le réparer, l'agrandir, le déplacer ou encore poser ou relever leurs nasses. Diapositive numerisé.
