The probable place of the origins of humanity, the African continent constitutes a regional laboratory of comparative law, among the richest on the planet. For the legal comparatist it has everything to offer: the earliest possible origins of law and legal systems; a remarkable plethora of ethnic identities and affiliations; an impressive history of customary and theological laws; the experience of being practitioners and subjects of colonial experience; the purveyors and recipients of alien and competitive laws and legal systems within Africa; objects of Christian and Islamic proselytizing; the legal impact of slavery; and the challenges of decolonization and independence, to mention but some of the contextual and direct impacts upon legal development on the African continent.
