"Africa is the oldest of the continents, the birthplace of civilisations, the storehouse of the earliest remains of humans and possesses the most wonderful works of humans. This is what Gardiner Hubbard wrote about Africa over a century ago in 1889. For ages Africa has refused to reveal its secrets to the world although explorers had penetrated from every side of the continent (Hubbard, 1889). Africa remains to be an inadequately explored and studied continent."
