INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS AND THE HUMAN SETTLEMENTS: TOWARDS INTEGRATION INTO EDUCATION CURRICULUM

ABSTRACT

Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS), though a relatively new discipline, is an important area of human. endeavour which has been part of traditional society. Warren and Rajasekaran (1993), defined IK as 'the systematic body of knowledge acquired by local people through the accumulation of experience, informal experiments, and intimate understanding of the environment in a given culture. IKS rest on a validated assumption that an indigenous community is guided by those principles and practices which they have developed from many years of experience and from generation to generation often based on the oral tradition (Titilola, et. al. 1924). IK is part of the people and their development representing a people's creativity, ingenuity. novelty. technology and skill.
