Answer:

Heritage

Explanation:

The Timbuktu manuscripts are handed down generation through generation, and contain the rich history and culture of the Malians and even copies of the Quran. Many Islamists also want to destroy these manuscripts because they conflict with their views of Islam, considering that the Malians version of Islam is more of a blend of forgiveness and peaceful conflict resolution. Also, these manuscripts are now old and brittle, and can be damaged if moved.

Answer:

During 1200 to 1450, Timbuktu had the largest library in the world and it held hundreds of thousands of books. Their library brought them great wealth and prosperity. However, after Chris Columbus and his Spanish explorers discovered the Americas and eventually started the Columbian Exchange, Africans were greatly disadvantaged. The Europeans captured millions of West Africans and transported them to the Americas as slaves. Timbuktu was located in West Africa. Their library is their biggest token of wealth after all the horror all the enslaved West Africans went through.
