Research Abstract |
The project aimed at presenting new perspectives on the formation of African cultures through comparative analysis of material culture of the continent. By carrying out the project, we could clarify the fact that African cultures are formed through continuous contacts with outside world, and actually presented new aspects of the history of Africa by publicizing the result in exhibitions and symposia.
