Dhlo-Dhlo
ruins in Rhodesia, 60 km to the east of Bulawayo. The site was investigated in 1895, 1899, 1929, and at later dates. Dhlo-Dhlo is a typical Zimbabwe construction; roughly 100 M in diameter, it was built dry from granite blocks. It has an irregular plan. One of the walls has decorative stonework. Within the walls are the remains of a number of clay and wood huts. The articles found at Dhlo-Dhlo are identical to those of the Zimbabwe culture. The polychrome pottery with geometric decorations indicates that Dhlo-Dhlo was settled by the Rozwi people, who probably built it in the 17th and 18th centuries. REFERENCESCaton-Thompson, G.
