French Archaeological Mission of Gedi

In the framework of a doctorate on Swahili fortifications, we have decided to undertook new archaeological excavations on the medieval site of Gedi in Kenya. This site has been chosen for the quality of conservation of its architectural vestiges, notably of its two town walls, its important surface of more than 18 hectares and its long duration of occupation from the 11th to the beginning of the 17th century
