Later kingdoms existed after the fall of this one, Barbosa wrote in the
16th that the king of Benametapa was a "lord of an exceeding great
country". If we are to consider this an exaggeration then we should see
it as simply a great country as opposed to an "exceeding great country"
European intervention helped lead to the decline of African kingdoms
before destruction by colonialism, if they didn't have the military might
to take over through out right force they were strong enough with their
gun powder to meddle in politics and trade routes. Livingstone said in
1856 "the only evidence of greatness possessed by his successor is having
about a hundred wives, when he dies, a disputed succession and much
fighting are expected."
"Cloaked in darkness since medieval times, the spectacular ruins of the
once dazzling, southern African kingdom of Great Zimbabwe posed a thorny
dilemma for white settlers who claimed to have 'discovered' the region a
mere hundred years before.
Refusing to believe the massive, finely hewn walls could be the product
of native culture, white "experts" eager to claim the land for
Europeans credited the ancient city to everyone from wandering
Phoenicians to the biblical Queen of Sheba.
In so doing, they began a long insidious European tradition of willful
misinterpretation of Africa's past, until, in the ultimate irony, the
place where human history began would become a place with no history of
its own.
Now, trek inland to the remote site of Great Zimbabwe, a fabulous "lost
city," which reached its glory in the 14th century. Then, sift the sands
of time to uncover the equally splendid culture of Africa's Swahili
Coast. The fabulously wealthy center of the thriving gold and ivory
trades until the 16th century, its cities now lie all but forgotten,
buried under centuries of indifference. Reclaiming their past from a long
tradition of racial prejudice and neglect, the descendants of these lost
cultures are only now discovering the extraordinary achievements of
Africa's indigenous civilizations.
Actor Sam Waterston hosts this ten-part series that revisits ancient
cultures on four continents. Dramatic re-enactments recall key historic
events, and attractive location footage provides viewers with interesting
information about the featured cultures. This episode looks at some of
the trade routes established by the ancient, sub-Saharan tribes of
Africa."
