Three Dikgosi Monument, Bronze monument in Central Business District, Gaborone, Botswana.
Three bronze statues, each measuring 5.4 meters tall, depict chiefs Khama III, Sebele I, and Bathoen I on granite pedestals with informational panels.
In 1895, these three chiefs traveled to Britain to negotiate the separation of Bechuanaland Protectorate from Cecil Rhodes's British South Africa Company administration.
The monument displays carved panels representing national values, including Botshabelo for refuge, Bogaka for heroism, and Boipuso for independence.
The monument stands between Eastern and Western Commercial Streets in the business district, with six plinths describing different periods of Botswana history.
The construction by North Korean company Mansudae Overseas Projects in 2005 generated discussions about international cooperation and local artistic representation.
