Ntusi is a Late Iron Age archaeological site located in southwestern Uganda that dates from the tenth century to the fifteenth century AD.[1] Ntusi is dominated by two large mounds and manmade scraped valley basins called, bwogero.[what language is this?][1] Long abandoned by the time Hima herdsman grazed their cattle on the Bwera, the herdsman named the site "Ntusi" meaning, "the mounds", after the prominent earthworks.[1] The archaeological record at Ntusi is unmistakable in the signs of intense occupation and activity and it represents the beginning of political complexity in this region of Africa.[1][2][3] Bigo bya Mugenyi, another site with prominent earthworks, lies 13 km to the north of Ntusi.
