BBC News - Sada Mire: Uncovering Somalia's heritage

BBC News - Sada Mire: Uncovering Somalia's heritage
Ms. Sada Mire is a native of Somalia who escaped as a refugee to Sweden and now studies in England. She has discovered several important prehistoric rock paintings in her native country, which is the part of Somalia which recently voted to become independent. Not surprisingly, archaeology is in its infancy in this place, and there are no museums. But UNESCO is considering listing the places she has discovered as world heritage sites.
