The monuments of Aksum

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The ancient Ethiopian capital at Aksum in Tigray is one of Africa's most spectacular archaeological sites. During the first seven centuries AD, it was the metropolis of a major civilisation whose influence extended far beyond its homeland. The first and only comprehensive attempt at recording Aksum's monuments - huge carved stelae, the foundations of elaborate stone palaces, and underground tombs - was made in 1906 by the Deutsche Aksum-Expedition and the results were published in 1913. This book is a translation of their report, now extremely rare, with a chapter on more recent discoveries.
