2 Name: Education and Timbuktu From the 14th to the 17th century, Timbuktu was considered the centre of Islam and education in the world. With the famous mosque, Sankore, transforming into the University of Sankore and the population of people totalling one quarter scholars, the city of Timbuktu became a centre of learning. Even though Timbuktu was a famous hub of trade, the greatest import, second only to salt, became books. Image Source: Not only was Islamic theology covered, but Mathematics, Law, Geography, Astronomy, the Sciences, Medicine and History were also popular areas of study. Even though Timbuktu was a popular hub for trade, the greatest import, second to salt, was books. Timbuktu s reputation as an educational centre attracted many scholars, and the kings of this era who were highly learned men, would encourage scholars to study and teach others. Despite access to the university, most scholars did much of their studying at home using dictation. Once the scholars had an understanding of the topic, they would discuss and debate the topic further. Modern historians estimate that there would have been millions of manuscripts and other documents during the prime of Timbuktu. Unfortunately only a few hundred thousand remain after degradation and damp destroyed many documents. In 2003, the South African Government in conjunction with the Malian Government and New Partnership for Africa s Development (NEPAD), collaborated to start a preservation programme to save the Malian manuscripts from ruin. The Malian manuscripts represent the highly evolved past of scholars in Africa, and it is critical that this history is preserved.
3 Experts have been to Mali to upgrade the facilities and store, restore and preserve the manuscripts. Most of the manuscripts in need of preservation are in the Ahmed Abba Institute, named after one of the most prestigious scholars of the 15th century. During 2013, militant rebels burnt several thousand manuscripts Two archivists, Aboubakar Yaro (left) and Alphamoye Djeite (right), study ancient manuscripts in a library in the Malian town of Djenne. and today, South Africa, the African Union, NEPAD and the Malian government is still striving to preserve the manuscripts.
