Indigenous peoples of Africa

This regional sub-category is intended for articles on particular indigenous peoples of this (sub-)region, and related topics.

See the discussion on the parent category talk page at Indigenous peoples for suggested criteria to be used in determining whether or not any particular group should be placed in this sub-category.

The term indigenous peoples used here has a particular, modern analytical sense. As such, not every ethnic grouping of this region will warrant inclusion here. Reference sources should be cited, particularly if the identification as indigenous may be controversial or contested.
