The Wassu stone circle is situated at Wassu village in the central river region, its believed to be burial mounds of Kings and chiefs in ancient times, more than 1,200 years old. Local legends has it that there is a curse on anyone who disturbs those laid to rest there. This may account as to why the stones  have lasted so long.

Despite the fact that they were burial sites, the stones themselves are of a younger age than the graves.The average height of each stone column is 5 feet 9 inches, and the 11 large concentrations of circles have puzzled many travelers over the centuries and have been the subject of  many archaeological excavations.
