Mabveni

Mabveni was an early farming settlement on a hill in the country near Mount Buhwa. Pottery, clay figures and the remains of grain stores recall a community that lived here long before the great stone centres of the plateau arose. Iron slag and fragments of furnace equipment show that its inhabitants worked metal, while beads of glass, copper and ostrich eggshell point to a variety of materials valued in their daily and social lives.
