Prehistoric Rhodesia; an examination of the historical, ethnological and archaeological evidencesas to the origin and age of the rock mines and stone buildings, with a gazetteer of mediaeval south -east Africa, 915 A.D. to 1760 A.D., and the countries of the Monomotapa, Manica, Sabia, Quiteve, Sofala, and Mozambique
Prehistoric Rhodesia is a 1909 London archaeological study by R. N. Hall, examining stone ruins and rock mines of south-east Africa for a scholarly readership. The four plates show rough-hewn stone walls, dry-stone enclosures, and a rocky hillside with a figure beside a wall, photographed as printed plates; a designer might take their dense, uneven masonry textures and weathered stone surfaces as material for patterns or backgrounds.
