Context
During excavations in the 19th century, 5 stearite statues were discovered in the ruins of the 'Great Zimbabwe' monument and taken to South Africa by Cecil Rhodes. It was Rhodes who gave his name to Rhodesia, which later became Zimbabwe. Since then, 4 have been returned to the country. This is an automatic translation. The original text is: Lors de fouilles au XIXème siècle, 5 statues en stéarite ont été découvertes dans les ruines du monument du 'Grand Zimbabwé' et emportées en Afrique du Sud par Cecil Rhodes. C'est lui qui a donné son nom à la Rhodésie, qui plus tard est devenu le Zimbabwé. Depuis, 4 ont été rendues au pays.
