Pyramids, 10 in number, have been discovered in Udi, in Enugu state in Igboland of Nigeria. Known as the Nsude pyramids, these ten circular stepped pyramids were associated with the Uto deity and were made of mud. Their reconstruction is needed, some tourists and scholars have said.
The discovery, made in the early 1930s by an archeologist, G.I. Jones, were not made public until a few years back. Now they have been published online, a research resource designed to make Jones photographs available to people who have a personal or professional interest in the art of Southeastern Nigeria.
