"For more than 1000 years, the Shona and their ancestors have lived and died on the land of Southeastern Africa. Theirs is a history of struggle and triumph over armed invaders, natural predators, disease, drought, famine and political oppression.

To combat the forces that threatened to tear them apart, the Shona developed myriad intricate and sophisticated social customs and beliefs, all of which still support one basic tenant: Live together and the culture will thrive."

"Steeped in the legends and traditions of this ancient African culture, Shona stone sculpture is a profound expression of human connections that transcend geography and time.
