Article Evaluation for "Early History of Nigeria"

Lack of information on the advancements during the Iron Age of West Africa and how large a role Nigeria played in the technology garnered.

Very little history of what the lands of Nigeria were like pre 1500. What role did colonization play in the written history of this nation?

Large gaps in timeline.

Stance seems neutral but history underrepresented.

Even though This article is within the scope of WikiProject Africa, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of Africa on Wikipedia, The amount of information lacking is disheartening.Africa played a large role in the advancement of many of earths first civilizations and empires.

The Nok people were pioneers in ancient metallurgy, their derivation of advanced metal casting techniques such as the lost-wax (cire perdue) process for tools and weaponry are some of first-known applications of the craft. Sculptures found throughout Southwestern Nigeria indicate that the Nok Culture was a hub for art of a world renowned caliber.
