contents <div class="otQkpb">Abstract</div> <div class="n6owBd awi2gc">This paper proposes a trans-continental "River Artery" model to explain the arrival of Southeast Asian food crops (specifically plantains) and Indian Ocean maritime goods (cowrie and conus shells) at the Katoto site and the wider Upemba Depression. Building on the botanical logic of N.W. Simmonds (1962) and the archaeological records of the 1st millennium CE, this hypothesis suggests that an Afro-Indonesian ethnogenesis at the Mozambique coast facilitated a deliberate, nurtured transport system along the Zambezi-Kafue-Lualaba river corridor.</div>
