It is necessary to specify that here Préhistoire and Protohistoire does not correspond entirely to the usual meaning of these concepts, very centered on the Europe. Work of the Années 1980 suggests that with the Senegal the protohistoire would include all the period précoloniale.

Places

Generally the prehistory and the protohistoire of Senegal evoke above all the megalithic Cercles of Sénégambie or the artificial shelly clusters, such those of the island of Fadiouth.

Conservation

Admittedly the climate and the acidity of the grounds of West Africa did not facilitate the conservation of the traces, but the list of the sites classified by the Historic buildings in 2003 and the abundance of the scientific work however highlight the number and the distribution of these vestiges.
