3.5(38)

Medieval Africa surveys the kingdoms, empires and trading societies that flourished across the continent during the Middle Ages. It covers states such as Ghana, Mali, Songhai, Ethiopia and Great Zimbabwe, alongside the trans-Saharan, Red Sea and Indian Ocean trade networks that linked African communities to wider commercial worlds. The book examines rulership, religion, urban centres and cultural exchange while challenging the idea that medieval African history was isolated from global developments.
