IGBO HISTORY IS RICH AND ANCIENT.

IGBO HISTORY IS RICH AND ANCIENT.

While so many of us do a lot of research to bring truth about IGBO history, some mockery mongers are busy throwing shades at a people that should be their ancestor.
IF YOU ARE IGBO, THIS PUBLICATION SHOULD MAKE YOU PROUDER THAN EVER. IGBO IS VERY ANCIENT. MORE ANCIENT THAN YOU EVER IMAGINED.

This is the story of UGWUELE in present day Abia state where an archeological finding that blew The minds of great scientists and scholars around the world. Where artefacts like hand axes, Quartz Flakes and many ancient “Stone age” tools where discovered and ascertained that IGBOS have lived there for more or less 250,000 years.

The Ugwuele excavation, located in South-East Nigeria, unearthed a variety of artifacts indicating a long history of human occupation and potential Acheulean Stone Age industry. Specifically, the site revealed stone tools, hand axes, quartz flakes, and the potential for a workshop where bifacial tools were made.

The site also features three layers of artifacts, suggesting multiple periods of occupation, with the oldest layer containing quartz flakes, small stone tools, and points.
More details about the findings:

1. STONE TOOLS:
   The site is known for its abundance of hand axes, with the majority being broken. Other tools include cleavers, picks, and sidescrapers.
2. Acheulean Industry:
   The mix of artifacts, particularly the presence of hand axes, suggests the site is associated with the Acheulean Stone Age industry, a period characterized by the production of bifacial tools.
3. Workshop Potential:
   The site has been described as a workshop, with evidence of tools being rough-hewn and possibly refined elsewhere.
4. Three Layers of Occupation:
   The site features three distinct layers of artifacts, suggesting three phases of human occupation.
5. Early Human Habitation:
   The analysis of the artifacts suggests human habitation in the area at least 250,000 years ago, according to Prof. M. A Onwuejeogwu.

No Pottery in the Lower Layer:
The lowest layer of the site contained no pottery, but only stone tools and quartz flakes.

Possible Workshop:
Some scholars suggest the site was used for roughing out bifacial tools, with the finished tools then being carried elsewhere… The question now is where were they taken to? Does this also proof that there were trade routes stablish Ed to other lands like Mali and sudan?

We will definitely entertain any and every of your question.
