                            December 2008 
                                               
                  
       
       Culture and Art Society of Ethiopia (CASE) is a non-
      profit, non-governmental Society operating in Ethiopia. 
      The  Society's  mission  is  to  document,  nurture  and 
      promote  the  cultural  and  artistic  practices,  natural 
      heritage,  indigenous  knowledge  and  socio-economic 
      institutions of local communities in Ethiopia and to help 
      these continue to play an active role in their lives. It is 
      committed to fostering the continuation of all activities 
      that the Ethiopian people see as signifying their cultural 
      identity and traditional heritage. Indigenous institutions 
      are  imbued  with  the  wisdom  needed  to  keep  society 
      healthy, both in terms of economic /material well-being 
      and spiritual satisfaction. They are also rich in ways of 
      caring  for  and  sustaining  the  environment  and  the 
      landscape. CASE is committed to studying and promoting 
      these traditional systems and institutions and to finding 
      ways of preserving them as living practices for posterity.  
       
       The Society is  therefore  interested  in  documenting 
      and promoting the linguistic heritage of the Ethiopian 
      people,  with  a  particular    focus  on  the  least  studied 
      languages,  such  as  that  of  the  Mursi.  It  was  in 
      accordance with this part of its mission, therefore, that 
      the Society supported the production  of this dictionary.  
       
       CASE would like to take this opportunity to thank 
      The Christensen Fund, a USA based organization which 
               provides support for the conservation and promotion of 
               the  traditions  and  natural  environment  of  Ethiopia. 
               CASE also extends its sincere appreciation to Dr David 
               Turton  of  the  African  Studies  Centre,  University  of 
               Oxford,  Dr.  Moges  Yigezu  of  the  Department  of 
               Linguistics,  Addis  Ababa  University  and  Ato  Olisarali 
               Olibui,  of  the  Mursi  community,  for  their  efforts  to 
               produce this important work. Our appreciation also goes 
               to the late Ba Gaha Kirinomeri, a Mursi co-researcher 
               who contributed significantly to the research work and, 
               finally, to the Mursi community as a whole for preserving 
               their linguistic heritage in which so much of their  local 
               indigenous knowledge is  stored.  
                     
                    CASE believes that the publication of this dictionary 
               will   play    a    significant    role   in    promoting  and 
               documenting the cultural knowledge of the Mursi and in 
               encouraging  forthcoming similar works.
