This book looks at the ancient cities of Middle Niger, the most recently 'discovered' ancient urban civilization. Highly-illustrated throughout, it explores the emergence of these unique clustered city plans which developed without a centralised power and which have a profound effect on how archaeologists view ancient urbanism.
