Culture
Artists are highly esteemed in Zimbabwean society and a greater percentage of artists make a viable living from their trade than in most other countries. In fact, Zimbabweans seem to take a measure of artistic talent for granted. Traditional arts, most of which are still practised, include pottery, basketry, textiles, jewellery and carving. Perhaps most notable for their quality and beauty are the symmetrically patterned woven baskets and stools carved from a single piece of wood. Shona sculpture, a melding of African folklore with European artistic training, has been evolving over the past few decades. One recurring theme is the metamorphosis of man into beast, the prescribed punishment for violations such as making a meal of one's totem animal. Most of the work is superb and a few Zimbabwean sculptors are recognised among the world's best. Zimbabwean's mesmerising music has always been an important part of its cultural life. African legends are punctuated by musical choruses in which the audience participates, and social events (such as weddings, funerals, harvest and births) are each accompanied by unique songs. Traditional musical instruments include the marimba , a richly-toned wooden xylophone and the mbira , a cute plinky-plonky device more commonly known as a thumb piano. The oddest percussion instrument used in Zimbabwe are the

    man to beasta believed consequence for a major religious violation. zimbabwe culture was impacted by colonialism.
    http://www.newtrier.k12.il.us/academics/faculty/KHall/AfricaontheWeb/Period8-Afr
    Anywhere one ventures in the world, one is expected to encounter a plethora of interesting and diverse cultures. From the Ibo peoples of Nigeria to the Blackfoot tribes of Michigan, the world is composed of many different traditions and beliefs. Specifically, Zimbabwean culture is a very diverse, intriguing culture, with its unique music, food, and artwork. A large majority of Zimbabwe habitants belong to one of two indigenous groups: the Ndebele or the Shonas. The Ndebele are a Bantu-speaking people located in southwestern Zimbabwe. There are currently about two million Ndebele in Zimbabwe. The Shonas are primarily recognized for their sculpture, that often portrays the metamorphosis from man to beast—a believed consequence for a major religious violation. Zimbabwe culture was impacted by colonialism. With colonialism, Europeans brought with them Christianity. Today, roughly 50% of Zimbabweans attend Christian churches; however, the indigenous beliefs of Zimbabweans are still very much in tact. Zimbabweans today still uphold their traditional teachings, but have also acquired a taste for the Christian, European way of life.

The oddest percussion instrument used in Zimbabwe are the mujejeje ('stone bells'). Many stones in granite outcrops around the country have exfoliated in such a way that when struck, they resound with a lovely bell-like tone (Zimbabwe's first rock music? - ouch). Harare is one of Africa's great musical centres, attracting South African exiles and indigenous musicians performing variations on Chimurenga music, inspired by the wars of independence.

    See also Central Africa Guinea Coast and Western and Central Sudan This large region is primarily rural and agricultural with several large coastal cities populated predominantly by Arabic traders. Elaborate mosques and palaces reflect the Islamic influence in the use of barrel vaulting and ornate decorative motifs on doors and windows. In the area that is now Zimbabwe, traditions of monumental stone architecture initiated by the Great Zimbabwe culture continue on a smaller scale. Beginning in the ninth century, trade networks link East Africa to Asia and the Middle East. This period is marked by first encounters with Europeans , primarily Portuguese traders , and subsequent struggles for control over the Indian Ocean trade networks. One site of this confrontation is the region south of the Zambezi River in present-day Mozambique and eastern Zimbabwe, where routes carrying precious metals and ivory to the coast are dominated by the emergent Mutapa state in the 1500s. In Ethiopia, the Early Solomonic period is one of intense scholarly and artistic production, including manuscripts, architecture, and panel paintings for the Orthodox Christian Church.
    The Bantu migration from the Cameroon-Gabon area to the coasts of East and South Africa concludes. Among other things, Bantu-speaking peoples introduce

Have the kids bring in a song they think identifies their culture and play it for the class. Have them try to explain what about the music or instruments say about their culture. Kavitha - Davinci and Michelangelo have nothing on the Sam Bushman
    Kid's version available Kavi explores the caves at Motopo National Park in Zimbabwe and discusses the 6000 year-old paintings insides these caves. For the people who left these drawings, the subjects of the drawing, animals, had an immense importance in their lives. Have your students create a time capsule, either with objects or drawings, that they think best represent their culture. Have them explain why they chose those objects or drawings, and have them explain why they think the cave drawings were of animals.
