The best part about African Archaeology???

Believe it or not, right next to Egypt, South Africa has the most beautiful and oldest world heritage sites which just proves how rich our country is, not to mention the whole African continent.
Places you are likely to find and not just Enjoy but appreciate for their natural beauty apart from the Cradle of Humankind which we've already spoken about, include believe it or not the world famous Robben Island 

“Today when I look at Robben Island, I see it as a celebration of the struggle and a symbol of the finest qualities of the human spirit, rather than as a monument to the brutal tyranny and oppression of apartheid. It is true that Robben Island was once a place of darkness, but out of that darkness has come a wonderful brightness, a light so powerful that it could not be hidden behind prison walls… ' Nelson Mandela

People will recognize those words from the former South African president Nelson Mandela who was help captive in the prison for close to 27 years
