Njamara

Njamara is a stone-walled centre high in the mountains of Barue, east of the Zimbabwean plateau. Its enclosures occupy different parts of the summit, with the remains of clay-plastered dwellings inside the walls. The buildings belong to the Zimbabwe tradition that extended across the highlands into the eastern country. Other stone-built places, including nearby Magure, mark a landscape of local centres linked by shared techniques and traditions of authority.
