ABSTRACT
The research on Gorobi site is informed by the need to reconstruct the history of the

Yandang people from an archaeological perspective against their sole dependant on oral

tradition which was the focus of the few records on the area. The aim of the research is to

document the archaeological finds and features found on the Gorobi abandoned

settlement site with a view to attempting a reconstruction of the past life ways of the

people who settled in Gorobi area. Methods like archaeological survey, oral tradition,

ethnographic survey, classification analysis and interpretations of data were employed in

this research. Archaeological survey conducted in Gorobi led to the discoveries of finds

such as potsherds which were collected randomly to represent the type and forms of

cultural materials on the site. Iron slags and tuyeres which could not be removed from

their original context were measured, photographed and represented on a map. This

research on Gorobi has thrown light on the understanding of the settlement history and

Archaeology of the Mayo-Bel wa area.
