Some Igbo compounds were historically paved with stones. These 1960s photos,taken during a survey of Igbo architecture by Zbigniew Dmochowski and his team, document examples in Ngwo and at the house of Alum Ogbodo in Umuatugbona, present-day Enugu State.

In 1897 the Kingdom of Benin was attacked by the British and their treasures were looted. The British Museum has a huge collection of Benin artworks and many of those it has comes from that historical theft. So, I will be sharing with you images of Benin art in that museum. #BlackHistory #Africa
