We are a team of archaeologists, historians and anthropologists studying the Niger Valley where it borders Niger and Bénin (West Africa). We are carrying out new excavations and research to shed more light on the people that inhabited the area between about 1200 and 1850 AD.
This blog will tell you all about it.
This investigation is funded by the European Research Council as part of the Starting Independent Researcher Programme (Seventh Framework Programme – FP7); it is led by Dr Anne Haour of the University of East Anglia, UK. The opinions posted here are however her own!

Si les media servent la soupe tiède, pour laquelle les lecteurs sont, soi-disant, prêts à payer, les “académiques” ne devraient ils pas être plus attentifs à les corriger, par le biais de lettres à l’éditeur, contacts avec les journalistes, etc. ? Il est vrai que cela prend pas mal de temps, ainsi qu’une tournure d’esprit appropriée. Aussi, les media sont ils prêts à tenir compte de ces contributions ?
