This episode was a little shorter than I would have liked thanks to some technical issues, but that didn't stop me from talking about the West African Hunter Gatherers that inhabited places like Shum Laka. We also started to touch on the Niger-Congo language family and how branches of it are starting to spread. Particularly Mande (Though it may be a separate language family) and it's probable connection to the Round Head Period of the Savannah and how the desertification was affecting its spread.
