	Timbuktu
		Timbuktu is a city that is more often than not, so shrouded in mystery and fantasy that it seems just a passing creation of an overactive imagination.
		Timbuktu was originally established by Tuareg nomads as a seasonal camp 10 km north of the northernmost loop of the Niger River (c.1100 A.D.).
		Between the decline of the Songhai Empire, raids from rival groups, and the shifting of trade routes, the population has shrunk to about 20,000 people.

	Andy's Anachronisms -- SlaughterHouse Five (1969) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Travelling between his experience as a prisoner of war in World War II to his suburban family life in the 1950s and 1960s, and his experience as a human specimen in an alien zoo on a distant planet, Billy seemingly has no control over these transitions.
		While the fragmented nature of time in the novel is largely a thematic device used by Vonnegut to contrast the different events in Billy Pilgrim's life, Vonnegut also contemplates the nature of time and fate in the book.
		With regard to time travel and the nature of time, my argument of late has been that if the past is immutable and cannot be changed by the time traveller, then it tends to suggest that fate exists.

	The Renewal of Jewish Identity in Timbuktu (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)

		The return of her husband naturally complicates matters, and much of the film addresses the changes in social and sexual politics occurring at that time.

		Between Time and Timbuktu is interesting largely for the performance of William Hickey, but it's not really a Vonnegut work, more of a mishmash of scenes and ideas from various stories.

		Ibrahim Abdulahi stacks a newly cut 80-pound block of salt in the pit of his personal salt mine in Taoudenni, a makeshift mining settlement in the Sahara Desert about 430 miles north of Timbuktu, Mali.
		Abdulahi and a few hundred other men spend roughly half the year living on salty water and rice so they can earn a small living using only their hands and archaic tools to cut earthen salt from the rocky plain.
		The current salt road through the desert is one of the last, dying vestiges of a once lucrative and vital trans-Saharan trade route that supported these nomads and their nomadic lifestyle.
