> THE LATER PREHISTORY AND HISTORY IN THE bilad el-sudan
>
> The session will focus on the various aspects of the Later Iron Age and
> Historic Period in what is traditionally termed the bilad el-sudan, hence
> the Sudanic and Sahelian belts of West and West-Central Africa, from the
> Senegalese coast to the Chad Basin, and further beyond to the Nile.
>
> In accordance with some of the general topics of the meeting papers given
> in course of the session might for instance cover topics like
>
> - emerging West-African societies and the resulting exchange with North
> Africa in the first millennium AD,
>
> - the interaction between expanding sub-Saharan Muslim states and
> non-Muslim segmentary societies,
>
> - the interrelation of climatic development and historic events.
>
> These are just some suggestions. Of course any other topic is also very
> welcome.
