The Ahouakro Archaeological Park is located in the north of the Tiassalé sub-prefecture, 145 km from Abidjan.

The site, which covers an area of 120 hectares, is dominated by plant formations characteristic of the forest-savannah edge (plots of Guinean savannah dominated by palmyra palms, islets of gallery forests, etc.). The Ahouakro Archaeological Park is located within a massif made of magmatic megaliths (methanoic) mainly composed of oligoclase, quartz, hornblende and green biotites.

This ensemble is dated from the lower to middle Ryacian, that is to say from the middle Paleoproterozoic (Birimian): from -2300 to -2150 million years ago.

The arrangement of the rocks is natural, as are the shapes, except that these are due to an erosion process, which gives them a special status that gives them meaning and significance.

The local Baoulé populations, residents and site managers, have adopted unique and original toponymies, based on the particular configurations ("finger of Nanan Koffi Ahoua", "balanced intelligence", "correcting rock", etc.) or based on religious meanings (residence of the male genius "diandia-yassoa", residence of the female genius "diandia bla", place of the assembly of geniuses "awlokloun", etc.). In addition to these megaliths, the Ahouakro Archaeological Park is home to many vestiges of vanished civilizations. Here and there, we discover polishing workshops, traces of tool sharpening, striated monuments with artistic decoration and rocks with decorative walls, from the Neolithic period.
Statements of authenticity and/or integrity
The Ahouakro Archaeological Park has not suffered any deterioration of anthropogenic origin. The rocks are intact and the remains are in place. However, two main threats could weigh on the site, namely bush fires and the proximity of the granite quarries. But for some years, bush fires have been banned by traditional managers in the vicinity of the site and the quarry is no longer exploited. Steps are underway to provide the site with a legal and regulatory status.
There are no World Heritage properties or properties inscribed on the tentative lists comparable to the Ahouakro Archaeological Park in the sub-region. However, the megalithic circles of Senegambia have similar characteristics. The specificity of the Ahouakro Archaeological Park lies in the natural arrangement of the monuments, the immensity of their size and the diversity of their forms. Furthermore, the site of Ahouakro is the place of religious activities of the local populations. whc.unesco.org/fr/listesindicatives/5087
