CAUSES OF MIGRATION - BANTUBantu “the people” (sub-Saharan Africa) Population pressure (over population)
agricultural advancements climate change (desertification) Population growth due technology (iron
metallurgy)

CAUSES OF MIGRATION- VIKINGSVikings “Northmen or Norsemen” (Scandinavia)Population pressure due to climate change (food shortage)Love of adventure and desire for treasureSuperiority on the seas – shipbuilding techniques and seafaring skillsVikings did not seek new land to settle initially; rather to raid and plunder

CAUSES OF MIGRATION- POLYNESIANPolynesian/Austronesian (Pacific Islands)Contests for power and influence led to tension – migration offered an alternative to conflict

COURSE OF MIGRATION - BANTU 1500 years from just south of Sahara to southern
tip of Africa Superiority over local adversaries due to
technology (iron weapons) Migrated slowly and established new settlements Used canoes to follow rivers through Congo rain
forests, settled on riverbanks Then eastward into savannas, adapting herding
goats to raising cattle and adding new crops (bananas)

COURSE OF MIGRATION - VIKINGSSuperiority on the seas – shipbuilding techniques and seafaring skillsVikings did not seek new land to settle initially; rather to raid and plunder Viking Age 790-1066
Initially west to Iceland 874CE, Greenland, N America (Leif Erickson first European on North American soil?)
Norwegians raiding and settling in Western England and Ireland Swedish to North-South Russian Rivers (all the way to Caspian
and Black Seas – eventually to Constantinople) Raid, pillage, plunder – eventually settle
and convert“From the wrath of the Northmen, O Lord, deliver us!”

COURSE OF MIGRATION - POLYNESIAN East towards Pacific and West towards
Africa Sailed outrigger canoes over “blue
water” In 800 years - from New Guinea to
Hawai’i, Madagascar, and New Zealand

EFFECTS OF MIGRATION - BANTU Gradual spread of Bantu languages Today there over 60 million people who
speak Bantu languages Superior iron technology allowed Bantus
to dominate and assimilate indigenous (local) groups
Cultural diffusion through exchange of ideas and intermarriage Religious beliefs Technology (agriculture, iron metallurgy) Social

EFFECTS OF MIGRATION - VIKINGS Destruction of villages and towns and many
churches and monasteries (700-800CE) Breakdown of centralized governments into
FEUDALISM Later, occupying and ruling large parts of
France and British Isles (900-1000CE) Swedes settling in Russia (Rus for ruddy) Converted to Christianity and get
assimilated into European civilization

EFFECTS- POLYNESIAN/AUSTRONESIAN Established agricultural villages in
unihabited or lightly inhabited islands Built strong chief-ruled societies
Eventually rulers and aristocracy viewed themselves as divine or semidivine
Adapted to new environments (ex. Maori)
