著名古都--大津巴布韦

　　At 1，800 acres in breadth and the only one of its kind in Africa， the complex of Great Zimbabwe confounded early European colonialists， who couldn’t believe that sub-Saharan peoples were capable of its creation. They were， in fact， and built the complicated structures sometime after 1200 AD， when a wide-reaching empire of about 20，000 Shona cattlemen ruled the area.

　　大津巴布韦

　　占地1800英亩的大津巴布韦曾是非洲独一无二的都城。早期欧洲殖民主义者见到它后大吃一惊，他们不相信撒哈拉沙漠以南的人民有能力建成如此先进的城市，但这是事实。在公元1200年后，有2万人口的修纳人王国占领该地后建造了这种都城。
