The Egyptian and Sudanese step pyramids easily come to mind in discussions related to ancient architectural feats. However, both countries are not the only older cultures that built such structures according to records.

Pyramids have been seen in other ancient settlements, and one of them is in Igbo land. They can be found in Udi, a community in Nsude town, Enugu State.

It is believed that similar structures could have been erected across many Igbo communities in the past too. The first pictures were reportedly taken in 1935 and were credited to G. I. Jones, an anthropologist. However, the first person to discover the structures after years of abandonment is Luke Walter.

According to research, the Nsude Pyramids has similarities with the Step Pyramid of Saqqara, Egypt.

Because of the level of their backwardness that's a "pyramid" worth celebrating.

we shared it with them not stole! beside the northern part and western part of igbo land had nothing to do with nsibidi talk more of claiming it. it was actualy my clan aro,the ejagams,ananngs,efiks,bekwaras,ibibios that used it.. since all the part of igbo land didnt use it, then how then did we stole it? ontop the matter we have launched our ndebe and any of our neighbors starting from the igalas and idomas down to the ijaws are free to use it.
