23 juill. 1000 - Bantu Migrations
Description:
The Bantu expansion is the name for a postulated millennia-long series of migrations of speakers of the original proto-Bantu language group.The expansion of the Bantu in West Africa began around 1000 BCE. Further east, Bantu-speaking communities had reached the great Central African rainforest, and by 500 BCE pioneering groups had emerged into the savannas to the south. Moving east by 1000 BCE, was creating a major new population center near the Great Lakes of East Africa
Pioneering groups had reached modern KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa by CE 300 along the coast Before the expansion of farming and pastoralist African peoples, Southern Africa was populated by hunter-gatherers and earlier pastoralists. The Bantu expansion first introduced Bantu peoples to Central, Southern, and Southeast Africa. The relatively powerful Bantu-speaking states on a scale larger than local chiefdoms began to emerge in the regions when the Bantu peoples settled from the 13th century onward. By the 19th century, groups with no previous distinction gained political and economic influence.
