	Kissi - Iron Age, Burkina Faso
		The central region of the province Oudalan, located in the north of Burkina Faso, is characterised by the presence of numerous Stone Age, Iron Age and sub-recent archaeological sites, some of which have been excavated by the Frankfurt Research Programm (SFB 268) since 1994.
		Among all the Iron Age sites discovered, the circa one hundred known in the Kissi region became the central focus of consideration from 1996 onwards, as the first excavations there were carried out.
		A probable interpretation for this type of find is the existence of a differentiated social structure in terms of economic and maybe political hierarchy, by which warriors detained privileged positions.

		Ever since he caused a stir on the music scene with his album Suzie in 1990, Oheneba Kissi has consistently released a new album almost every other year without relenting, to the admiration of his teeming fans.
		The hallmark of all Oheneba Kissi’s music is that his songs are boosted by good instrumentation, good voices and commendable messages.
		It is a shame that year after year, musicians who churn out songs with questionable lyrics sweep the awards while hard-working songsters who churn out decent songs are not considered even for mention.
