It's so frustrating trying to figure out historical shit when anyone who proposes that it wasn't built by Africans it called a racist.
Another interesting fact, no other place in the region has similar construction. So Africans build this one location, forgot all about how to do it again, lived there for a couple of hundred years, and then completely forgot about it.

Okay this is boggling my mind.
Sub-Saharan Africans didn't really make it out of the stone age until Muslim and Europeans came to Africa.
Yet in Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, this ancient town exists. Great Zimbabwe it's called.
Some key notes about it,
* no mortar used to bind the stones
* the wall around the enclosure isn't defensive
* had been abandoned for 300+ years by the time Europeans came across it
* the local Africans wouldn't go near it because it's where devils lived
* something like 100 stone houses built in the same manner.
So who the fuck built it? It was supposedly built around 1100 AD. Which is a few hundred years before Europeans and Arabs came to the areas.
Did African natives build it, and then lose all knowledge of construction, reverting back to mud and thatch huts?

@maxmustermann Because the premise makes for easier writing.
Self insert loser protagonist gains unfair advantage right off the bat, wish fulfillment for many NEETs.
Many aspects are borrowed from Japanese RPGs, reducing the amount of explaining needed.
World building is easier, as characters spout exposition at the audience under the guise of explaining things to the protagonist.
Something totally illegitimate to do if all the characters are supposed to be familiar with the world.
If it wasn't an Isekai, you would have to "show, don't tell", but that's harder to pull off.
It's a lazy genre.

The Isekai genre had reached the point of self parody. It had already experienced its own deconstruction with Re:zero. Why won't it just skedaddle?
