Mgangani Ruins

Historic Ruins along Kenya's Coast Mgangani Ruins: Satellite to Gede Ruins Like Kiburugeni ruins at Blue Bay, Mgangani, a medieval city now the site of a mosque southwest of Gede along upper reaches of Mida Creek, believed to be a port city of Gede and associated with Somali mosques of the 18th Century, is also a difficult to find. “It was build where it is because of the existence of an ancient coral which provided abundant building material”. A few piles of rubble nearby suggests that there might have been a few stone houses other than the mosque, but the ‘outpost’, if there were stone houses, must have been relatively small. There are dozens of well-studied and accessible historic sites along the Kenya's Coast. Some of the historic sites located here are composed of the old settlement towns and outlying groups of tombs. North to South, the coast is awash with a collection of ruins, found mainly along the beach, many of them on private lands.
