It is an area dominated by Islamic states situated at the southern ends of the trans-Saharan trade routes. Back to african tribe list The sculpture here is characterized by schematic styles of representation. Some commentators have interpreted these styles as an accommodation to the Islamic domination of the area, but this is probably not an adequate explanation since Islam in West Africa has either merely tolerated or actually destroyed such traditions while exerting other influences.

African Art and Architecture I. Introduction African Art and Architecture , the art and architecture of the peoples of the African continent, from prehistoric times to the 21st century. II. Origins and Sources Art in Africa has found expression in a range of media from architecture, sculpture, and pottery, to music, dance, textiles, body adornment, and epic poetry. Each of these has its own complex and in many cases unresearched local history of stylistic development. griots, or bards. The combination of these various sources, together with inferences drawn from late 19th- and 20th-century data, has allowed scholars to identify what appear to be some of the major building blocks of a history of art in each of the regions of sub-Saharan Africa, but it is clear that many questions remain to be answered. An African response to the earliest European presence in West Africa is apparent in the depiction of European merchants and soldiers in the cast brass plaques made in the 16th century in Benin, as well as the finely carved ivory salt cellars and hunting horns brought back by sailors from Kongo, Benin, and the coast of Sierra Leone. Increasing European involvement on the African continent over the following centuries has had a far-reaching impact that continues to be felt today. It would, however, be a denial of the creative agency of African artistic responses to changing circumstances to see this impact as wholly negative.

Cartographic History African indigenous mapping was previously believed to be entirely variousmnemonic maps (including tabwa scarification patterns and Luba lukasa boards) http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/cm/africana/cartohis.htm
Extractions: Maps and the history of science The history of western mapping and cartography is interwoven with many important themes and trends: the history of navigation and exploration, economic development and the expansion of European mercantile interests, the encounter with non-western peoples (and the subsequent re-introduction of classical traditions into the west), the rivalries of competing European interests, the relationship of scholars and elites within and among nation states, the development of printing, the increasing need for control over the newly encountered territories from the contact period through colonialism, along with the technology of integrating text and graphics in printed works, the economics of commercial publishing, and so many more topics that one way or another impact upon this story. Herodotus (c. 484-425 BC) is considered the first known historian of the western world. He reported (quite skeptically) the Phoenician circumnavigation of Africa (Waterfield 1998, 4:42). He also documented a scribe's account of the sources of the Nile, which was accepted until the late 19th century: "The account of Herodotus, based on a story told him by a scribe, that the Nile had its source between the two conical peaks of Crophi and Mophi and flowed in two channels to the north and south had considerable influence on future geographers. It accounted for the undue prolongation of the Nile to the south and for the erroneous ascription of the same source to the Nile and the Zambezi" (Lane-Poole 1950:3). The tenacity of this account is truly astounding, as evidenced by the fact that David Livingstone "was still pursuing the Herodotan myth" in the middle of the 19
