The Malian city of Timbuktu is one of the world's oldest seats of learning and has an intellectual legacy of hundreds of thousands of manuscripts, coming from three great West African desert empires: Ancient Ghana, medieval Mali, and the Songhai Empire. These manuscripts offer a unique window into their history. Many remain unread.

This lecture will look at how their study can be used to advance our knowledge of the intellectual history of the premodern world.

Kumasi, Ghana, is the capital of the Asante region. This is the seat for one of the most powerful kingdoms of West Africa, surviving British colonisation for centuries. The Kumasi central market is one of the largest in Africa and is run and lead by women. In this documentary, we meet the female traders of this important economy.

The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975.
As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions.
The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and Panare Indians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes and the Meo of China.

⁣Ogbunigwe, the deadly mass destruction missile that made the Nigerian federal troops jittery, was a product of the scientific feat of the breakaway nation of Biafra. It was, allegedly, the first technology to be wholly designed, developed, mass-produced, and launched in Africa.

It was used in combat during the Nigeria-Biafra War (1967-1970) and at the height of production, about 500 units were being produced every day in Biafra. #HistoryVille #Ogbunigwe

Beads are a fundamental part of Ghanaian heritage. Not only they testament to the vibrance of Ghanaian creativity, but they also play a significant role in the country's history, rituals and culture.

Koforidua is a town in Eastern Region of Ghana located approximately 80 km from the capital and main commercial centre, Accra. The beads market is believed to have been in existence for over 200 years, previous locations having included open spaces. The current site is a dedicated market facility provided by the local government authority and is a weekly beads and crafts market which happens on a Thursday next to the Koforidua Jubilee Park. Locals are usually happy to give a visitor directions.

The space is filled with a myriad of units varying from shops to open-sided stalls (which look like temporary structures to the visitor) to table top displays. With facilities like these it goes without saying that on a rainy Thursday the market is pretty quiet.

Goods on offer include:

Beads
Beaded jewellery
Jewellery findings
Glass beads raw materials such as broken louvre blades and glass bottles
metal bars,
yarn
wood
leather and cowry bags
brass products and artefacts,
wood carvings and,
And anything else which might interest customers. There will, for example be small food and drinks sellers.

Ghana's History Republic of Ghana (2000-2008)

In the year 2000, the people of the Republic of Ghana were ready for another general election. After 11 years of Jerry John Rawlings ruling as a military dictator and serving two terms in office as a democratically elected President, which was 8 years, it was time for a change of government.

Rawlings had ruled from 1981 to the year 2000 spending almost 20 years in power. So a general election took place in December of 2000 with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) coming out on top with their flag bearer John Agyekum Kufour winning the election. John Agyekum Kufour was sworn in January 2001 and assumed office. President John Kufour brought stability, economic growth, and further development to the Republic of Ghana.

Kufour was praised for massive infrastructure development, as well as attracting foreign investment. The improvement in agriculture was astonishing and there was a better management of our two main exports, gold and cocoa. He also changed the Ghana cedi currency, converting it into a new Ghana cedi which had the same value and equated with the old one, thus making transactions faster and easier.

Kufour was also responsible for helping create the Golden Jubliee, which was established in 2007 when Ghana celebrated 50 years of independence from Britain (the United Kingdom). Just as Rawlings did, John Kufour served two terms in office and was getting ready to leave office in late 2008.

Gold Coast, British West Africa Sequel / Colonial Film 1950s

Ghana during colonial, imperial times in its pre-independence, British colony state. The Gold Coast (now Ghana) became an official British colony in 1874.

The Gold Coast's name derives from its most treasured and valuable resource, which is gold. In the beginning of time, it was known as the Empire of Ancient Ghana which was well known for the Ashanti Kingdom. The Ashanti Kingdom, however, was actually the last kingdom to be conquered by the British to be incorporated in the Gold Coast British colony.

In the 1950s, the Gold Coast came under an African government, who shared political power with the British. This was particularly with the governor Sir Charles Noble Arden-Clarke. This African rule included none other than Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and his political party the CPP (Convention People's Party).

Ghana's History Part 2 / The Gold Coast (1966-2000) The sequel to Ghana's History / The Gold Coast (Colonial Independence From Britain). This is primarily based on the years that followed after Dr. Nkrumah's overthrow, which were years of dictatorship and countless military coups. This documentary includes all the Presidents of Ghana and military dictators from military regimes that took over from where Dr. Kwame Nkrumah left off, which includes Lieutenant General Joseph Arthur Ankrah, Lieutenant General Emmanuel Kwasi Kotoka from the National Liberation Council. Also, Kofi Abrefa Busia, Ignatius Kutu Acheampong, Dr. Hilla Limann, and Jerry John Rawlings. J.J Rawlings ruled as a military dictator and then as an elected President until the year 2000.
