The purpose of this article is to attempt to reconstruct Jan Czekanowski’s researches conducted between April 1908 and April 1908 in the basin of the Uele River in Central Africa. The basis for reconstruction was the fragment of the original, hitherto unpublished manuscript, Diary of the anthropologicalethnological column of the expedition to Central Africa in the years 1907–1909, written according to the requirements of the organisers during the expedition. This manuscript has not been published to date, although it is preserved in a very good condition, with almost two full sets of texts written in German (fragments are written also in French, Polish and African languages). The collection is stored in the Department of Manuscripts of the Warsaw University Library, deposited there by Anna Czekanowska, the daughter of the researcher. It comprises 11 notebooks and one folder with a total quantity of 1,187 cards.

The article presents the concept of race developed in 1913–1938 by the so-called Lviv typological school, constituting one of the factions of the then actively developed Polish anthropology. The author discusses the concepts of this school in the broad context of the era, stating that the concepts of the school, including the concepts of its founder – Jan Czekanowski, built on the grounds of the Mendelian inheritance theory and fascination with quantitative methods, despite seeking objectivity were determined by the then spreading idea of human racial diversity.

The purpose of this article is to present the history of the Bunyoro and Toro Kingdoms in the light of research of the eminent Polish anthropologist, Jan Czekanowski. Czekanowski conducted field research in the kingdom of Toro in 1908, when both Bunyoro and Toro were part of the Uganda Protectorate. Bunyoro and Toro ceased to exist as political entities in 1966, after Uganda gained independence. They recovered their position in 1993 and today their kings try again to combine their old tradition with modernity and to define their place in the contemporary political, social, cultural and economic country life. Jan Czekanowski’s research, though not well-known outside of Poland, is a valuable contribution to the studies of their pre-colonial history.

The article is a deep reflection on changes taking place in minority cultures, not only in contact with their larger neighbours, but also, and above all, under the influence of globalisation processes and the rapid development of tourism. The research is structured in order to present the Batwa people living in the African Great Lakes region from a broader time perspective. The juxtaposition of two research periods, one from the early 20th century (Jan Czekanowski) and the other from the 21st century (Lucjan Buchalik), made it possible to track the changes in the everyday life of this community. On the one hand, the Batwa are marginalised, and on the other hand, they are being absorbed by the surrounding, more dominant peoples. Studying the transformation process, one can notice that the Batwa accepted many changes resulting from their contacts with the outside world. It was the process of forcible displacement from their historical territories that threatened the existence of this community.
