Geographic Education - National Geographic Society
The Nok Culture, thriving from
1000 BCE to 300 CE in modern Nigeria, is known for its remarkable terracotta
sculptures. These artifacts, with detailed human and animal figures, highlight
Nok's artistic sophistication.
Nok society pioneered iron
smelting, marking a significant technological advancement. This innovation
influenced subsequent West African cultures, contributing to regional
development.
Little is known about their
social structure, but their artistic and metallurgical achievements remain
pivotal. Archaeological discoveries continue to unveil the extent of Nok's
influence, revealing a rich cultural heritage that shaped early African societies.
