The mainland Río Muni totals about 93 per cent of the nation’s land area and 75–80 per cent of its population. Río Muni is bordered by the Gulf of Guinea, Cameroon in the north, and Gabon in the south and east. The largest city in Equatorial Guinea, Bata, as well as the country’s future planned capital, Oyala, are found on the mainland. In 2016, the population amounted to 1.2 million. The currency used is the Central African franc (CFA). Office hours in the public sector are from 0800 to 1600 from Monday to Friday.

African Iron Age

AbstractOver the last few decades the number of radiocarbon dates available for West Central Africa has increased substantially, even though it is still meagre compared with other areas of the continent. In order to contribute to a better understanding of the Iron Age of this area we present and analyze a total of 22 radiocarbon dates obtained from sites from the island of Corisco (Equatorial Guinea). By comparing them with those from Equatorial Guinea, southern Cameroon, and coastal Gabon and Congo we intend to clarify the picture of the West Central African Iron Age and propose a more accurate archaeological sequence.
