洛罗派尼遗址

洛罗派尼遗址位于科特迪瓦、加纳和多哥边界附近地区，占地11130平方米，距今至少有1000年历史。其石墙为劳毕区域十座堡垒中保存最为完好的，包括了100堵石砌围墙中的绝大多数，见证了横穿撒哈拉沙漠黄金贸易的鼎盛时期。这里曾被Lohron及Koulango种族所占据，一直控制着该地区的黄金提炼，并在14至17世纪达到鼎盛。遗址四周充满着许多秘密有待挖掘。

文化遗产

The 11,130m2 property, the first to be inscribed in the country, with its imposing stone walls is the best preserved of ten fortresses in the Lobi area and is part of a larger group of 100 stone enclosures that bear testimony to the power of the trans-Saharan gold trade. Situated near the borders of Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Togo, the ruins have recently been shown to be at least 1,000 years old. The settlement was occupied by the Lohron or Koulango peoples, who controlled the extraction and transformation of gold in the region when it reached its apogee from the 14th to the 17th century. Much mystery surrounds this site large parts of which have yet to be excavated. The settlement seems to have been abandoned during some periods during its long history. The property which was finally deserted in the early 19th century is expected to yield much more information.
