In 1998 and 1999 legendary explorer Colonel John Blashford-Snell led one of the most ambitious expeditions since Thor Heyerdahl's Kon-Tiki. This is the account of an amazing adventure which provided evidence that South Americans could have had trading contacts with Africa 1,000 years before Christ. In recreating this epic journey, they built their own fleet of traditional craft - the largest named Kota Mama and uncovered many archaeological sites along the way.
