It is quite sad that so much about the African has been lost overtime. One culture often talked about is the Nok Culture. The Nok culture was one of the earliest known societies of Western Africa. It existed in modern-day Nigeria from around 500 B.C.E. to 200 C.E. The Nok farmed crops and used iron tools. Historians and archaeologists refer to this culture as the Nok culture because artifacts were first discovered near the modern Nigerian town of Nok. Nok culture is known for its unique terracotta sculptures and its early iron working. In Nigeria in 1943, a visitor came to archaeologist Bernard Fagg and drew his attention to some unique-looking artifacts, which Fagg and his colleagues eventually determined belonged to a then-unknown culture now known as the Nok. These artifacts are mostly terracotta sculptures of human heads, human figures, and animals. One of the identifying characteristics of Nok sculptures is the triangular or oval-shaped eyes on human faces. Human figures also often have elaborate hair styles. Typically, humans are depicted seated, with their hands on their knees What other cultures do you know about? #sarautaculture #sarauta #sarautamagazine #sarautamag #sarautanetwork #culturecurators #culturegatekeeper (at Nok, Kaduna, Nigeria) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCVhkJzl-wz/?igshid=1y0idguo5c74v
