Offering a unique and original perspective on the rise and fall of
indigenous states of southern Zambezia, The Zimbabwe Culture
analyzes the long contentious history of the remains of the
remarkable cyclopean masonry, ranging from mighty capitals of
traditional kings to humble farmsteads. Forming a cornerstone of
the geographical lore of Africa in the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries, debate on the origins, development, and collapse of the
Zimbabwe culture has never ceased, and with increasing
archaeological research over the twentieth century, has become more
complex. Thoroughly examining the growth and decline of
pre-colonial states on the entire Zimbabwean Plateau and southern
Zambezia, Dr. Pikirayi has contributed tremendously towards the
archaeological understanding of this extraordinary culture. The
Zimbabwe Culture is essential reading for all students and
avocationalists of African archaeology, history, and culture.
