    Indigenous Knowledge Of Wild Foods And Medicines Among The Tagoi Communities In The Nuba Mountains – Sudan
    (Université Mohamed Lamine debaghine Setif2, 2025-06) Ali Osman Mohamed Osman
    The paper at hand aims at compiling and investigating the traditional knowledge of endemic wild plants, animals, birds and insects gathered or hunted by the primarily agriculturalist Tagoi people of South Kordofan (in the savannah summer-rain belt, Sudan), along with their folk culinary and/or medicinal uses, from an anthropological perspective. It is the first attempt at documenting the local bio-cultural heritage of wild species along with their perceived nutritional and medicinal qualities in this region. In-depth unstructured and open group interviews with local male and female knowledge holders and journal articles extracted from ethnobotanical research projects carried out in different parts of the world were the main sources of primary and secondary data, respectively.
