Kondoa Irangi Culture
Kondoa Irangi It is impossible to determine the exact age of the drawings. But in Kondoa a number of ancient human sites have been discovered. In those sites archaeologists have found various objects such as beads, objects made from stone, and various pottery. Radiocarbon analysis gives a dating of several tens of thousands of years! While the drawings might not necessarily be connected with the unearthed objects, it is clear that those areas have been inhabited for uncounted millennia.
Another fascinating fact about the rock art in Kondoa is that new drawings were still being made until very recently. It was recorded that the representatives of the Sandave people applied new images to the rocks in the 1970s. They did it for ritual purposes: depicting an animal they intended to kill before hunting, to call for rain or healing, or to appeal to the clan spirit, which was assigned to a particular hill in the area. Scientists note the amazing vitality and continuity of the pictorial traditions of the region.We are Philip Adventure Safari and Company we will organize your trip to Kondoa Irangi painting.
