Item Details
Description
Deep in their huts, in a dark and often smoky corner, the chiefs of lineages preciously stored their Byéri, the relic chests and the sculptures that "watched over" them. The daily life of the Fang had three priorities: to perpetuate their social identity, to subsist in a hostile natural environment, and to dialogue with the deceased to keep them away from the living. (Louis Perrois)
