This would have happened on November 25, 1871 in Mugere, about ten kilometers south of Bujumbura on the eastern shore of Lake Tanganyika. A stone (moved) was erected on the spot to immortalize the meeting between the famous scientist David Livingstone and the young reporter Henry Morton Stanley, who went in search of him. However, this meeting took place a few days earlier, on November 10, in Ujiji, in what is now Tanzania. The place marked by the stone is in fact a place where the two explorers stationed from November 25 to 27, 1871.
