This factual book tells the story of World Heritage Site, Mapungubwe, which is on the border between South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Archaeologists have found many artefacts at this site that are evidence of how people lived there between 900 and 1300 years ago. Maps show the location and photographs show the different kinds of artefacts found there, including gold jewellery, iron arrows and pottery bowls. Today, Mapungubwe is a National Park. People can visit the museum to explore life long ago.
