description this property is composed of five elements located in different provinces of the country. it includes about fifteen standing, natural-draught furnaces, several other furnace structures, mines and traces of dwellings. douroula, which dates back to the 8th century bce, is the oldest evidence of the development of iron production found in burkina faso. the other components of the property – tiwêga, yamané, kindibo and békuy – illustrate the intensification of iron production during the second millennium ce. even though iron ore reduction –obtaining iron from ore – is no longer practiced today, village blacksmiths still play a major role in supplying tools, while taking part in various rituals.
