The griots were very important in Africa, here's why. The griots told people stories from the past, they didn't write it down. Griots talked about great things that happened earlier. They talked about great kings, and great people or warriors. They didn't always talk about great things in the empire, they also talked about tragic things. They told stories about brutal wars.Griots were the mains source of history back then.
They palyed an important role, because no one would have known about Ghana, Mali, or Songhai if they didn't pass on those stories for generations. They kept the history going for a long time, so that we would know about these empires. They told us a lot about the west African empires. If griots had not done that then would wouldn't have any clue that those empires existed.
