Deux mille cinq cents ans de traditions céramiques à Dibamba Yassa (Cameroun)
The archaeological rescue of Dibamba Yassa at the entrance to the city of Douala (Cameroon), by a Franco-Cameroonian team led by the IRD, uncovered more than 20,000 sherds of pottery allowing the definition of five successive ceramic traditions over 2,500 years, in a region still little-known to arc...

| description | The archaeological rescue of Dibamba Yassa at the entrance to the city of Douala (Cameroon), by a Franco-Cameroonian team led by the IRD, uncovered more than 20,000 sherds of pottery allowing the definition of five successive ceramic traditions over 2,500 years, in a region still little-known to archaeologists. The chrono-stylistic framework that these results allow us to reconstruct opens up new possibilities for reflection on the history of cultural interactions in Central Africa since the beginning of the Early Iron Age. Finally, the spatial distribution of archaeological structures suggests the possible appearance of street villages at the beginning of the chronological sequence. |
