Today, we talk about Igbo-Ukwu bronze artifact:

They are the oldest bronze artifacts known in West African and were manufactured centuries before the emergence of other known bronze producing centers.
The Igbo-Ukwu bronzes amazed the world with a very high level of technical and artistic proficiency and sophistication which was at that time distinctly more advanced than bronze casting in Europe.
Its elegant design and refined detailing are matched by a level of technical accomplishment that is notably more advanced than European bronze casting of this period.
