Ras Mkumbuu Ruins

The Ras Mkumbuu Ruins are an archaeological site located in Chake Chake district of the South Pemba Region of Tanzania. They lie close to the village of Ndagoni at the end of a long narrow peninsula known as Ras Mkumbuu, which lies to the northwest of the town of Chake-Chake. The ruins mainly date from the 9th century CE and were abandoned in the 16th century, though there are indications that they were built over older foundations.
