𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐂𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐃𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍 it is a beautiful 232-page book, which makes a valuable contribution to understanding between peoples without harming the cultural identities specific to each people, which must be preserved. It is part of a current of thought advocating a scientific re-reading of Cameroon’s past and the memorial restoration of historical consciousness through archeology which allow us to find the first traces of human occupation.
The result of a long research work, it was written by recognized scientists.
The first part dedicated to the historical foundations of the country evokes the first
traces of occupation up to the painful history of independence.
