I question the scanty mention of the Kalanga people they seem to have been the builders of the Mapungubwe empire which led to the development of the Great Zimbabwe. More details of the connection between the Kalanga culture in art and pottery should shed more light on the development and growth of the the Great ruins and their connection to the smaller less majestic ruins to the west of Zimbabwe.

id like more history

When were the ruins of great zimbabwe conquered? who controlled great zimbabwe when it was incorperated into the rozwi state.

heres a list of places in the rozwi Empire Circa 1700 AD 1..Khami 2..Dhlo Dhlo 3..Zambabwe (ruins) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.164.123.146 (talk) 18:53, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date of beginning and end

There is some contradiction between dates in the text (1684-1834) and dates in the box (1660-1834).
Which one is it exact?
I think the beginning is in 1660, since the "Mutapa" article says Rozwi made Mutapa vassal in 1663.
About the end I don't know if Matabele needed few years or thirty years to overrun Rozwis.
