Beschreibung
In October 1896, a squadron of "Deutsche Schutztruppe" forces erected a camp on Mount Meru, near to the mission station that King Matunda was having built. A night battle between local people and the German forces resulted in the deaths of at least three civilians who worked for the mission station (Karava, Mrio, Kalami) and two Eastern European Leipzig Mission missionaries, Ewald Ovir and Karl Segebrock. The deaths of Ovir and Segebrock were then used as an excuse by the "Deutsche Schutztruppe" to brutally attack the Wameru and Ilarusa people. 2021 Leipzig Mission commemorated the 125th year of the so called "Akeri killings" with an international online symposium. This publication documents the presentations.
