Description
Divided into broad geographical sections which celebrate and showcase the peoples, landscapes and wildlife from different regions of this great continent, this book teaches about the history of the continent as the birthplace of the very first human beings, through rich historical civilisations such as the ancient Egyptians, the Benin Empire, and the Kingdom of Kush, up to the development of the dynamic cities of the modern day. Africana explores the visual cultures and artwork from across Africa, including the the printed cottons of Guinea and the mud cloth of Mali; famous figures from African history and modern-day change makers; and the landscapes and wildlife of the continent, ranging from the deserts of the north, the rainforests of the central regions and the savannahs of the south. Includes maps and timelines.
