Wanar

Wanar is one of the great stone-circle sites of Senegambia. Its twenty-one circles include a double ring, and several unusual forked stones stand among the laterite pillars. These monuments are associated with burials and form part of a tradition extending along the Gambia River across a wide region. Their builders quarried and shaped the stones with iron tools, creating a lasting sacred landscape over many generations.

The later city of Kaffrine lies nearby.
