Robert Williams town

Robert Williams town

Vila Robert Williams ((Robert Williams town, now Caála) was a colonial town under the Portuguese control of Angola in the Cuando Cubango province. The town of Robert Williams was just west of Nova Lisboa (now Huambo) and was remarkable for huge outcroppings of boulders that jutted from the fields just outside of the town. In those outcroppings researchers could find pottery shards, primitive metal smelting pits, and other archeological detritus.
