Ancient Rock Gongs aka African Singing Stones

“Twenty miles off the coast of Uganda in the unpredictable waters of Lake Victoria lies an island full of mystery.

Unknown even to the local residents, it is an island of musical rocks. Numerous prehistoric stone gongs sit silently beneath the huge granite borders that characterize Lolui island.”
