Product Description

A documentary film about the cultural and historical legacy of the Gonderian civilization at Gonder, Ethiopia. Some 400 hundred Years ago, Emperor Fasil became involved in the construction of castles and others followed his footsteps. As a result, a civilization was born.
The Gonderian civilization that lasted for a number of years is considered to be a milestione in the annals of African history. It is a historical irony that when the Gondernian civilization was flourishing, the African s lave Trade was at its zenith. The engineering of the castles, the paintings in the churches, the Sculptures and other constructions still amaze modern architects.
The film not only portrays the construction of the various castles, it also examines the social and economic back ground for their construction. How was their ideas conceived? Who were the engineers and architects? What role did Ethiopians/Africans play in the construction of these castles? How was it possible to achieve such a monumental undertaking? What were the historical circumstances behind the Gonderian Civilization? The Documentary film address t these and other issues and modern architects, churches and modern historian, engineers and artists provide their insight.
