djinguere ber mosque is one of the three historic mosques/madrasas that make up the still-functioning university of timbuktu. this particular mosque was established in 1327 under the reign of songhai emperor askia daoud, and all three mosques flourished in the 15th-16th centuries as the city became more and more renown. natural factors have made the mud mosque vulnerable, but thankfully preservation efforts are ongoing.
Songhai Empire: the Songhai state existed in Africa in one form or another for over a thousand years, including the first settlement in Kukiya on the eastern edge of what would become the Mali empire.

Les coiffures SonghaĂŻ
Le « Zumbu » est portĂ© par les femmes mariĂ©es ayant eu au moins deux enfants. Les cheveux sont tressĂ©s de tous les cĂŽtĂ©s, parsemĂ©s de perles, et le front est couvert de nattes ornementĂ©es de perles. Le sommet de la tĂȘte est recouvert par le « Zumbu », qui prĂ©sente une crĂȘte ornĂ©e de lambeaux de fils rouges tombant sur les joues. Cette coiffure est rĂ©servĂ©e aux grands Ă©vĂ©nements et symbolise la fiertĂ©, lâhonneur et la dignitĂ©. (Photo 1) Les « Zoota-Kamba » ou « manches de louche » dĂ©signent des tresses faites de cheveux entrecoupĂ©s de perles « Kawla ». Ces tresses sont rassemblĂ©es sous forme de manches de louche et sont typiques des femmes cĂ©libataires, en quĂȘte de lâĂąme sĆur. (Photo 2) Le « Goffa », la coiffure de la jeune femme mariĂ©e. Il fait partie intĂ©grante des cultures songhaĂŻ et touarĂšgue. Seules les femmes mariĂ©es peuvent le porter. Il est Ă©galement arborĂ© lors dâĂ©vĂ©nements importants pour distinguer les femmes mariĂ©es des jeunes filles. Cette coiffure se caractĂ©rise par des tresses, agrĂ©mentĂ©es dâaccessoires en or ou en argent, appelĂ©s « kurkuru », selon la richesse de la famille. Ă lâĂ©poque, cette coiffure Ă©tait trĂšs coĂ»teuse, ce qui la rendait inaccessible Ă beaucoup. Aujourdâhui, des rĂ©pliques et des perruques existent, rendant le « goffa » accessible Ă tous. Ă Tombouctou, le « goffa » Ă©tait portĂ© par les reines, dâoĂč son surnom de « coiffure des reines ». Cette coiffure reprĂ©sente une sorte de couronne que la femme porte pour symboliser sa dignitĂ© et son honneur. (Photo 3)

âTo keep the picture as clear as possible, we have to keep on remembering that at various periods in ancient times, the âLand of the Blacksâ meant all Ethiopia, all Ethiopia meant all Africa, and all Blacks were Africans or Ethiopians or Thebans, etc.â â Dr. Chancellor Williams, author of The Destruction of Black Civilization: Great Issues of a Race From 4500 B.C. to 2000 A.D.
