The ruins of Great Zimbabwe are acknowledged as one of the most impressive monuments in Africa, but also one of the most mysterious. Many scholars have investigated them without coming to any agreement on the identify of their builders, their purpose or even their date.The author considers the ruins in both an African and a global context, and reviews investigations of other archaeological and historical enigmas around the world. He finds previously unsuspected connections between Zimbabwe and ancient civilisations such as the Phoenicians and the builders of the Giza pyramids.Finally he offers a truly 'heavenly' explanation for Great Zimbabwe with unique astronomical charts.
