EDITORS COMMENTS

This black and white lantern slide depicts the ruins of Great Zimbabwe, a historic city that once served as the capital of the Kingdom of Zimbabwe during the Late Iron Age in Africa. The monument, located in present-day Zimbabwe, began construction in the 11th century and continued until the 14th century, covering an area of 722 hectares (1,780 acres). At its peak, the city could have housed up to 18,000 people. Great Zimbabwe acted as a royal palace for the Zimbabwean monarch and was the seat of their political power. One of its most notable features were its massive walls, some of which were over five meters high and constructed without mortar. The city was eventually abandoned, and it fell into ruin. The slide is part of the Boswell Collection, Box 288, held by British South Africa, and dates back to the late 19th century, around the 1890s. The image provides a glimpse into the rich history of Zimbabwe and the impressive architectural achievements of the Zimbabwean people during that era. Great Zimbabwe is an essential piece of African history and a testament to the ingenuity and cultural significance of the Zimbabwean civilization. The ruins continue to attract tourists and scholars from around the world, offering valuable insights into the past and the development of African societies. [End of Caption].
