Africa’s martial heritage remains one of the most intricate and least understood aspects of its historical identity. Far from being simple instruments of violence, African weapons were—and remain—extensions of artistry, spirituality, and political authority. This book unites museum evidence, oral traditions, and academic discourse to present a comprehensive picture of African pre-colonial warfare and craftsmanship.
