Few magnificent monuments from different African nations. From the oldest colonial building in South Africa (Castle of Good Hope) to the world’s largest rock-hewn in Ethiopia (Lalibela). Also photographs of great Libyan, Kenyan, Egyptian and Ghanaian monuments.

Libyan monument is called tomb of Marchius Nasif in Ghirza. Kenyan national monument Nyayo-era located in the Uhuru Gardens. Egyptian pyramid Sfinx of Gizeh. Ghanaian statue in dedication of Ghana’s first president Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

Interesting to read the history behind these monuments, recommended.

African headwrap. The African headwrap originated in sub-Saharan Africa and was often used to convey modesty, spirituality, and prosperity. Even MEN in Africa wear head wraps to symbolize wealth and social status. Interesting how many various ethnic groups wear head wraps and/or head accessories, were more connected then we think.

Chad - officially the Replubic of Chad, located in the heart of Central Africa. Chad borders Libya, Sudan, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria and Niger. Chad’s official languages are Arabic and French. Country where the 7 million year old hominid skull was found by a paleontologist named Michel Brunt. The oldest discovered anywhere in the world!

All life orginated from Africa, despite the fact that eurocentrics are trying to claim otherwise.

You can’t compete to this really :)

enthusiastic boys from Lusaka, Zambia.

Lusaka is the largest capital city of Zambia, it is located in the southern part of Zambia. Lusaka is one of the fastest-developing city in southern Africa. Excellent place for travelers who love to explore hectic and aesthetic places like Lusaka.

The San culture is dispearing as the new generation is living in the towns now, and few people still live the life of their grand father times. They have a special language made with clicks of the tongue.They also look much more like asian people than african.
