Northern Arizona University |
|
| A well-documented set of pages on Zimbabwe. The General Description of the Summer Program contains a link to interesting background information on Bulawayo. The Background Information About Zimbabwe contains a link to the "fortress" which contains a brief, but interesting, description of how the Great Zimbabwe ruins fit into the picture. | Summer Seminar in Zimbabwe... | Quote: "The word Zimbabwe (plural madzimbabwe) is derived from the Shona words dzimba dza mabwe and means 'house of stone'. Archaeologists and historians believe that from the 13th to 15th centuries Great Zimbabwe was the capital for a large area in southern Africa." |

| Zimbabwe page... No pictures here, but a wealth of interesting information including information about the Shona (majority) and Ndebele people groups and the roles they have played in the past. Also a great description of the white water rafting below Victoria falls. This appears to be one of the world's best white-water rafting tourist attractions. I have seen references to it on numerous pages including every URL I have listed here. For example, the "Focus on Zimbabwe" (Vic Falls page 2) contains a cool picture of a group of rafters. The "Africa Tour" site contains a reference to watching the rafters from the Victoria Falls bridge. The Arizona University page also links to a picture of white-water rafting. | Africa.com | This site also has descriptions of Lake Kariba (where Mom was so fearful of the Hippos that came out of the water the night we were there), "Hwange National Park" (the game reserve we knew and loved as "Wankie National Park"), Great Zimbabwe, and more... |
