The Ikom monoliths are a group of about 350 upright carved stone sculptures located in Ikom community in Cross River State, Nigeria. The stones which vary in height from 1 to 2 meters are distributed evenly in circles facing each other around the seven clans of the Ikom community. While the images and texts carved on the monoliths still remains a mystery to researchers and linguists who have researched on the monoliths for several years, it was finally believed that the texts are pre-historical form of writing and visual communication.
Oral histories of the community attribute the monoliths to the ancestral residents of the area which is believed that the spirit of their ancestors have come to live in the stones. Due to these mysterious monoliths, majority of the Ikom people have embrace stone carving as their major occupation, which has led to the construction of Nigeria’s largest monument centre in the community. Join me as we explore the mystery behind these monoliths through this well detailed and explicit photo book. Welcome to the ancestral community of Ikom, Cross River State, Nigeria.
