It probably represents the bateleur eagle or the African fish eagle. ==Origins== The original carved birds are from the ruined city of Great Zimbabwe, which was built by ancestors of the Shona, starting in the 11th century and continuing for over 300 years.〔(Great Zimbabwe (11th–15th century) | Thematic Essay | Timeline of Art History | The Metropolitan Museum of Art )〕 The ruins, after which modern Zimbabwe was named, cover some and are the largest ancient stone construction in Zimbabwe. Among its notable elements are the soapstone bird sculptures, about tall and standing on columns more than tall, were installed on walls and monoliths of the ancient city of Great Zimbabwe.〔 They are believed to have been a sign of the royal presence. After the ruins of Great Zimbabwe were discovered by European colonists in the late nineteenth century, they took five of the carved birds to the Cape Colony and sold them to its leader Cecil Rhodes. A German missionary came to own the pedestal of one bird, which he sold to the Ethnological Museum in Berlin in 1907.〔 In 1981, a year after the attainment of independence in Zimbabwe, the South African government returned four of the statues to the country; the fifth is held at Groote Schuur, Rhodes' former home in Cape Town. In 2003, the German museum returned the portion of bird's pedestal to Zimbabwe.〔("Zimbabwe bird 'flies' home" ), BBC, 4 May 2003, accessed 6 May 2013〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zimbabwe Bird」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
