cultura Urewe
Explanation:
Propongo come traduzione cultura Urewe. Qui di seguito indico le definizioni (in inglese) trovate:
U•re•we –adjective Archaeology.
of or pertaining to an early Iron Age pottery tradition of central Africa beginning in the second half of the first millennium b.c. and associated with the spread of ironworking and possibly cattle raising and the Bantu language.
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/urewe?r=14

Definition: The Urewe Culture is the name given to the first group of iron producers in the Lake Victoria region of Kenya, Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, and Tanzania in eastern and central Africa. The Urewe were probably cattler herders and millet and sorghum farmers, and made a distinctive pottery with dimples and concentric lines, which is similar to that of Kalambo Falls in Tanzania. Urewe sites are Early Iron Age, dating to the early 3rd through 6th century AD.
