Muyove

Muyove was a settlement on the summit of a steep hill in the Urungwe country south of the Zambezi. Its people lived there for a long time and made abundant pottery. Fragments of small furnace pipes show that metal was smelted, while copper and iron objects reveal other aspects of local craftsmanship. Pottery and copper finds link Muyove with neighbouring Chedzurgwe and Nyarinde, and with a wider world of exchange across the Zambezi.
