Lime Training in the Royal Compound at Gonder
The Royal Enclosure, early 17th Century, Gonder, Ethiopia. I am very lucky to be working here running lime training for the next 7 days.
Gondor in the 16th and 17th Centuries was a city of extreme brutality and extreme wealth but leaves us today the most romantic royal enclosure built of basalt.
