Danamombe - Danamombe (together with Khami and Naletale) was one of the centres of the Rozvi culture, which had succeeded the Torwa.

Naletale - The ruins are attributed to the Kalanga Torwa State and are thought to date from the seventeenth century. The primary monument at the site is a colossal wall constructed from stone masonry.

Great civilisation.Rhodesian whites tried to influence archaelogists that the ruins were not made by the Africans. If that isnt the story of world history today I dont know what is.

Manyikeni
Manyikeni is a Mozambican archaeological site, around 52 km west of the coastal city of Vilanculos. The archaeological site dates from the twelfth to seventeenth century. It is believed to be part of the Great Zimbabwe tradition of architecture, distinguished by mortarless stone walls, and part of the famous Mwenu Mutapa’s Kingdom.[1] The central stone enclosure complex is built in this tradition, and the find of a Zimbabwe-style iron gong at the site also suggests cultural ties.
