dawnomike: The wonder isn't in its size, but engineering. The igbos were said to possess an advanced form of technology, and were speculated to be the real Wakanda. But the colonial era was a blow as their European masters made away with not just their tools, but talents as slaves. 1 Like |

Hate to rain on anyone's parade, but the man who took the photos in the early 1930's also wrote that "Two years ago the local Dibia, 7.e., mystic or witchdoctor, informed the priest of Uto, a genial old man, that Uto had told the Dibia that it wanted the people of Nsude to erect ten Nkpuru (pyramids) in its honour andas a sign to all and sundry that Uto is a great juju and lord and master of Nsude. He described the building of these shrines. "Two years ago when the ten pyramids were erected it was found that when the lower platform or Nkpuruhad been built there was plenty of roomfor a second Nkpuru, which was therefore built on the top of the first. A third Nkpuru was built on top of the second, and so on until there was only room for a small cone in the centre of the fourth Nkpuruor platform." These are made of mud and clay and it's not surprising they have eroded. There's no evidence of this Luke Walter person, all mentions seem to be from this century. |
