DAKPODJI PAVEMENTS

Archaeological excavations have uncovered pavements dating from the 15th and 16th centuries. These were protected in the enclosure of a small building. The four pavements, with an inlaid cup in the middle, are made up of shards of pottery broken up into different shapes, each of which appears to form a circular structure. This would be a place of worship for the ancient inhabitants of Notsé. Remains of bones were found under the central cup, which reinforces the idea of the ritual character of the place.
