DID YOU THAT!!!
Bantu peoples of Africa had iron technology. We’re not sure where they got it; so far as we know, iron was first worked in Mesopotamia. The Bantu may have learned how to use iron from the Egyptians, who may have learned it from the Mesopotamians. Most historians don’t think that the Bantu discovered the ability to smelt iron on their own, because there is no evidence of the bronze work before iron work. Historians generally believe that people learn to work bronze, then iron; therefore, the Bantu must have borrowed iron technology from someplace else.
The arts of central Africa are on display at the Quai Branly museum in Paris with an exhibition calledFleuve Congo (Congo River). It covers the immense Bantu-speaking region of central Africa which is seven times the size of France and extends from the Rift Valley to the Atlantic.
Artifacts
In traditional Bantu, shields were used not only as defensive weapons, but also as decorative or ritual objects filled with symbolic meaning. They can be carved from wood, woven, made from a variety of hides and even metal. Bantu people began using iron in the great lakes region to create their artifacts . A great deal with the Bantu and the Indo-Europeans created they spread of iron, pottery styles, and philology, with the development of agriculture they lost the rights to their land, and the population grew too big to support that many people.
MUSIC
Music is one of the most fascinating expressions of Bantu culture. With
traditional and popular music, people express their feelings and their values,
their challenges and hopes. African music is part of both community life and
school life in rural Africa, and is part of city life in urban Africa. In the
streets of Lagos, Accra, Dar-Es-Salaam or Johannesburg there is the sound of
African popular music. Street musicians entertain the public with music and
performances. Almost every African man, woman and child can play an instrument,
or sing songs or dance. Songs are sung while the people work in the fields.
How interesting, right?. These are some facts of a people in Africa.
