Some of Peru's most mysterious monumental structures are their giant earthworks. The hummingbird geoglyph was influenced by conquest because it was first created by the society of the Nazca culture who ruled part of the southern coast of Peru during the first seven centuries CE. 

The crowned head was affected by conquest because the Yoruba claim to be the earliest settlers of today's Federal Republic of Nigeria. The Yoruba language is believed to go back to the first millennium BCE where their artists have created monumental headpieces, sculptures, and architecture. The artists continue to keep these traditional pieces alive for wealthy royalty, political leaders, and civilian patrons.

The masks were affected by colonialism as the Bwa community of Burkina Faso were a cultural group that was been able to maintain their historic traditions and religious practices despite French colonialism and the presence of both Christianity and Islam in that area. 

It is significant to plot the masks on the map because their process of intijan is now present in Western culture. The Bwa people would practice intijan through masquerades. It is seen in our culture today that masquerades are held for celebratory purposes. With this, masks are also worn, similar to how the Bwa community would practice intijan. 

The Nkisi Nkondi was affected by colonialism as the Christian missionaries and Belgian authorities tried to remove these items from distribution, but were unsuccessful. This is because the Nkisi Nkondi was too important in terms of local legal issues. 

It is important to plot the Nkisi Nkondi on the map because the Europeans did not appreciate these objects made by the Kongo. Belgian colonial authorities had abolished the local judicial system and conducted all arbitration through their own courts. Towards the end of the mid-20th century, the Nkondi were no longer used for justice. This was most likely because the judicial system was retired back to local control after their independence from Europe. The works of art are still made today, but only for collector markets and tourist attractions. 

The Great Mosque of Kairouan was affected by conquest and colonialism as Islam arrived in North Africa via a lone trade route along the Silk Road from China to sub Saharan Africa and Southern Europe. When the North African population converted to Islam, they needed a mosque to practice their prayers and celebrations. Which is where the Great Mosque of Kairouan came from. 

It is significant to plot the mosque on the map because it is the oldest surviving mosque in Africa. It also proves the changes in Tunisia in the 9th century. Kairouan was the capital of Ifriqiya and was the home of the Aghlabids. The mosque represents Islamic victory over the Byzantine and Roman empires as it was built with the characteristics of those buildings. The mosque also used horseshoe arches in their columns. The arches because identifiable with Islamic architecture as it was used many centuries afterwards and around the world.
