| Khami Ruins: An ancient Iron
Age complex just 20km outside Bulawayo, understood to be
the capital of the Torwa state as Great Zimbabwe was in decline.
Its dry stone walling, similar in style to that at Great
Zimbabwe dates back to the 15th and 17th century, and artefacts
found in this area date back to the early Stone Age. |

found here. |
