Panga ya Saidi ist eine archäologische Fundstätte im Kilifi County in Kenia aus der Epoche des Übergangs vom Middle Stone Age zum Later Stone Age, wie diese Epochen in Ostafrika bezeichnet werden, also von der Mittleren zur Späteren Steinzeit. Es handelt sich um ein großes Kalkstein-Höhlensystem, dessen Decken teilweise eingestürzt sind. Die bislang erforschte, so genannte Hauptkammer hat eine Fläche von rund 100 Quadratmetern und liegt rund 15 Kilometer landeinwärts vom Indischen Ozean im Dzitsoni-Hochland des Zanzibar-Inhambane coastal forest mosaic in einer Höhe von ungefähr 150 Metern über dem heutigen Meeresspiegel.

Panga ya Saidi is an archaeological cave site located in Kilifi County, southeastern Kenya, about 15 km from the Indian Ocean in the Dzitsoni limestone hills. The cave site has rich archaeological deposits dating to the Middle Stone Age, Later Stone Age, and Iron Age. Excavated deposits preserve an unusually long record of human activities, from around 78,000 years ago until around 400 years ago, a chronology supported by radiocarbon dating and optically stimulated luminescence dating. This sequence puts Panga ya Saidi alongside other key sites such as Enkapune ya Muto, Mumba Rockshelter, and Nasera Rockshelter that are important for understanding the Late Pleistocene and the Middle to Later Stone Age transition in eastern Africa.

Panga ya Saidi é uma caverna arqueológica localizada no condado de Kilifi, sudeste do Quênia, a cerca de 15 km do Oceano Índico nas colinas de calcário Dzitsoni. O local da caverna possui ricos depósitos arqueológicos que datam da (280.000 anos atrás e terminou por volta de 50-25.000 anos atrás), (entre 50.000 e 39.000 anos atrás) e Idade do Ferro. Depósitos escavados preservam um registro incomumente longo de atividades humanas, de cerca de 78.000 anos atrás até cerca de 400 anos atrás, uma cronologia apoiada por datação por radiocarbono e datação por luminescência opticamente estimulada. Panga ya Saidi tem sido um local importante para a pesquisa das origens humanas desde o início das escavações em 2010, como parte de uma parceria de longo prazo entre arqueólogos do Instituto Max Planc

This sequence puts Panga ya Saidi alongside other key sites such as Enkapune ya Muto, Mumba Rockshelter, and Nasera Rockshelter that are important for understanding the Late Pleistocene and the Middle to Later Stone Age transition in eastern Africa. The archaeological potential of Panga ya Saidi was first noted by Robert Soper and later by Richard Helm. Beginning in 2010, the cave site has been excavated by the Sealinks Project, headed by Nicole Boivin. The interdisciplinary archaeological project is now based at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, in partnership with the National Museums of Kenya. These investigations have helped to establish the significance of Panga ya Saidi for understanding the Middle to Later Stone Age technological transition and the proliferation of symbolic objects such as bone tools, engraved ochre, and beads in Late Pleistocene eastern Africa. Zooarchaeology and stable isotope analysis have been used to reconstruct Late Pleistocene and Holocene paleoecology and subsistence from animal bone remains. Investigations have also focused on the role of the site in late Holocene agricultural and trading networks along the Swahili coast, with African crops such as pearl millet, nonnative animals such as black rat, marine shell beads, glass beads, and Tana ware pottery documented in the Iron Age deposits. Ancient DNA recovered from a 400-year-old burial indicated that this individual was most closely related to ancient and present-day hunter-gatherers in eastern Africa, including the ancient individual at Mota, Ethiopia.
