AFRICAN TIMELINE


Clarification: Professor Gloria Emeagwali does not share the same gender or profession with the computer scientist/mathematician and winner of the 1989 Gordon Bell Prize - but I congratulate him for his magnificent achievements.


In this site we present various perspectives on African Indigenous Knowledge Systems(AIK) from a wide range of scholars. We publish brief extracts from scholarly works on the subject and focus on several areas. We are proud to say that this site has been listed by the United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as one of the top 50 of African websites.
