    A study of Ozizza archaeological and ethnographical sites and features in Ebonyi state of Nigeria: research methodological discussion
    (2020) Okonkwo EE; Ikegwu J
    Ozizza community is one outstanding heritage site, which straddles the East of Ugwuegu and Ukpa rock shelters and has a total area of 24.32km2. Ozizza is situated on a hill, with undulating plain, and lies between N900E north of Upper Afikpo. It is endowed with both archaeological and ethnographic resources; interestingly, this study arose because there has not been a systematic study of the archaeology of Ozizza. The existence of the heritage site is now in danger, particularly with the current wave of herdsmen assault and communal clashes. In this paper, we will discuss how we carried the research, choose and discussed with respondents within the Ozizza community, and essential individuals that helped to create awareness about the heritage of the Ozizza community.
