Ntusi, Archaeological site in southwestern Uganda
The site contains two large mounds, each forty meters in diameter, with numerous smaller mounds scattered across the surrounding area.
Excavations from the tenth to fifteenth century revealed extensive deposits of household items, including broken grindstones, pottery, and cattle bones.
The local community named the two principal mounds as male and female, reflecting traditional gender perspectives in ancient African societies.
Located 83 kilometers northwest of Masaka and 193 kilometers from Kampala, the site requires advance planning for transportation and guided visits.
The Bwogero depression reaches twenty meters in depth and holds evidence of an advanced prehistoric irrigation system from the medieval period.
