Swahili culture is the product of the history of the coastal part of the African Great Lakes region.
By the 8th century, the Swahili people became involved in the Indian Ocean trade. As a consequence, they were influenced by the Arab, Persian, Indian and Chinese cultures.
As well as in the Swahili language, Swahili culture has a Bantu core and has also borrowed foreign influences. This Bantu expansion introduced the Bantu peoples in central, southern and southeastern Africa, regions of which they were previously absent. They gradually evolved to accommodate an increase in trade (mainly with Arab traders), population growth and even more centralized urbanization, developing what would later become known as the Swahili city-states.
