Old Chitambo

Livingstonemonumentet.

Chitambo var en liten by i nuvarande Zambia, där David Livingstone uppehöll sig vid sin död. Vid sekelskiftet hade byn flyttats till en annan plats efter hövdingen Chitambos död. På den ursprungliga platsen finns numera bara minnesmärket Livingstone Memorial. Byn ligger vid Bangweulusjön.

MONUMENT TO DAVID LIVINGSTONE, EXPLORER.
The body of David Livingstone, the great explorer, is buried in Westminster Abbey, but the monument herewith illustrated was recently erected in memory of the famous Scotchman on the shore of Lake Bangweolo, Africa, near the spot where the explorer died thirty years ago. Beneath the monument is Livingstone's heart, which was not taken to England. Stanley found Livingstone in 1871, but Livingstone refused to return home and died two years later.
