Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. viii, 124 pages, 55 pages of plates : illustrations ; 31 cm. This book is an important contribution to the archaeology of Ghana and to the unravelling of the history of the country. No-one seriously interested in that his- tory can afford to be without it. It is the detailed report of the scientific excava- tion of a 24-ft. high midden mound in Akwapim which appears to have been in use for about four hundred years from a date in the fourteenth or fifteenth cen- tury. There is important evidence con- cerning the introduction of smoking into Ghana, and about early trade beads. The report contains what is believed to be the first archaeological proof in West Africa that brass-casting was known and prac- tised to a high level of skill before the advent of Europeans on the coast; in fact there is remarkable evidence of the activities of craftsmen in brass of a very high order. The corpus of carefully classified and illustrated pottery should be invaluable for future archaeologists working in the area. The archaeological evidence has been related to oral tradi- tions concerning the movements of the Guan and Akwamu peoples.…
