When David Livingstone died in 1873 in what is now Zambia his attendants removed his heart and buried it under a tree. They then carried his body over 1000 miles to the coast near Dar es Salaam, where his remains were returned by ship to Britain and interned in Westminster Abbey. But Livingstone's heart belonged to Africa.
