The migration of the Bantu people into the interior of Africa is commonly referred to as the Bantu expansion. This significant movement, which began around 1000 BCE and continued for several centuries, involved the spread of Bantu-speaking peoples from their original homeland in West Africa into central, eastern, and southern Africa. The expansion facilitated the diffusion of agriculture, ironworking, and various cultural practices across the continent.
