内容説明
Great Zimbabwe was the largest and most important capital of a medieval Shona empire. In this booklet, a world authority presents a new interpretation of this famous African town. Using 16th-century eye-witness accounts of the Zimbabwe culture, together with Shona oral tradition and culture, Professor Huffman reconstructs the different uses of the stone enclosures and the meaning of many symbols, including the Zimbabwe birds and the celebrated conical tower.
