I'm so very happy to finally share the *sung* version of the Kansala 2024 excavation report, composed and performed by the amazing Nino Galissa. Subtitles on (unless you speak Mandinka)!

Have just been given an Amílcar Cabral pano de pinto and hat today in acknowledgement for our work in Kansala. Honoured beyond words. May as well retire now, cannot trump this!

Recording today the sung version of the Kansala excavation report with the amazing Nino Galissa, never thought an archaeological report could sound so beautiful!

This is the wonderful team currently excavating Kansala, last capital of the Kingdom of Kaabu, currently in Guinea-Bissau. Archaeologists from Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-B, and Spain, working together to document this amazing site. More news on finds shortly!

Last month we spent two amazing weeks in Guinea-Bissau preparing the January excavations at Kansala, the last capital of the Kingdom of Kaabu. Thanks to Thierry Balde, Eric Garcia Moral and Iaia Biai for making it possible and to INEP for hosting us. Can't wait for January!
