Lolui Island: settlement and lake networks
No ancient self-designation is inferred from this research label or modern place name.
Lolui Island: settlement and lake networks brings reassessed 1964–1965 collections, 2011 fieldwork and comparative ceramic research into a local historical context. The reassessed fieldwork distinguishes older background, early farming contexts and much later fishing histories. Island communities were connected, not necessarily isolated; material networks do not prove one lake-wide state.

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; the atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent or membership. Urewe, Entebbe and Transitional Urewe are ceramic classifications, not direct ethnic or language identities. Later research, restoration and heritage events are dated separately in the timeline.

Uma cronologia breve e documentada
Ces repères servent d'orientation et ne constituent pas une histoire complète.
-
Island settlement questions
Ceramic evidence supports local activity without assigning every inhabitant one language.
-
Changing material contexts
Surface associations suggest dates for some features, not certain ages for every cairn or painting.
-
Fieldwork and delayed publication
Investigation and its later synthesis must not be confused with occupation dates.
-
Renewed project
Survey, limited excavation and local stewardship address evidence and preservation, not entry or collecting permission.
