This is claimed to be a great black architectural marvel built by a glorious black civilization. It's just dry stone wall, probably built by Arabs.
Great Zimbabwe.

it's a ruin you fricking moron of course it looks like that.
A ruin of a dry stone wall build by Arabs.
>The majority of scholars believe that it was built by members of the Gokomere culture, who were the ancestors of the modern Shona in Zimbabwe.[13]
What do you even get out of denying black achievements you uktrainsecure losers?
If Great Zimbabwe had been developed and built by natives, there would be similar structures throughout the region and they would have continued to been occupied and further developed.
They were moron. The Rozvi built extremely similar structures after their consolidation of power.
would be similar structures throughout the region
>im pretty sure there are
Except there aren't.
There's actually a lot of these scattered allover the region anon.
What's this?
A 17th century pile of rocks not worth discussing
>THERE WERE NO OTHER GREAT ZIMBABWE STYLED ARCHITECTURE IN THE REGION, THIS CONFIRMS MY SCHIZO FANTASY OF GREAT ZIMBABWE BEING CREATED BY ARABS
>Someone posts images of Great Zimbabwe-like stone structure, built by the Shona Rozvi Kingdom, thereby refuting your moronic claim
>Moves goalposts fricking instantly with NOOOOO ITS NOT WORTH DISCUSSING MUH PILE OF ROCKS
Utterly mindbroken
>there would be similar structures throughout the region
im pretty sure there are
>trusting 21st century "scholars" on anything regarding blacks
Yeah no thanks, I'll stick with 19th and 20th century scholars
>the 20th century scholars in question
>500 year old African pile of stones "marvel of architecture"
so opulent...
>meanwhile some random European tribe 5000 years ago
tbf those brochs in Scotland are like 2000-2500 years old, not 5000.
yes but it's not a broch THOUGH
Amerimutt moment
It's more impressive than Chinese walls which was just rammed Earth, not even stone.
What's funny about subsaharan Africa is that they basically have to be treated as separate from "Eurasia" because how utterly backwards they remained in spite of being fairly close to actual civilizations. Like the Australian natives have the excuse of being in frick all nowhere. Imagine being within a reasonable naval voyage from South Asia and this is the best you can come up with.

The state that nade these was a land empire. Does anyone read here?
>It's just dry stone wall, probably built by Arabs.
Magical flying Ayrabs!! Lmao you fraud
Arabs were all over East Africa's coast and founded all the "civilizations" found there (Askum, Somalia, Swahili states, Zanzibar...)
>founded all the "civilizations" found there
There you go with fellating Arabs. It's always the chuds who do this. Arabs didn't even travel to the inner parts of Southern Africa and explictly made mention of that to the Portuguese. That and Arab architecture being pretty distinct.
And Arabs were never even the first traders at all (not even close lol) or the only.
>Askum, Somalia
2 ethnics groups that never spoke Arabic
>Swahili states, Zanzibar
Only the Swahili states were founded by Arabs/Persians
Zanzibar was part of Oman. The Swahili states were a continuation of the earlier indigenous coastal trading entities over the region.
Aksum predated Arab dominance of the region.
They didn't even dominate that much either. Funniest part about all this is that upplaying Arabs in the region requires to literally ignore anything the locals did or say on top of other non-African and non-Arab presence that did have trading ties or merchant diaspora within these African states.
Aksum was founded by the Yemeni
Aksum predated their control of where Yemen is though. Aksum conquered them.
>glorious black civilization
not physically possible
translation: i hate Black folk
>it was done by le arabs
I get the feeling this is a pedro thread due to his obsession with arabs, probably because he got an ancestry test that confirmed he isn't white and this is his best cope
