songo circumcision site title
Songo-Circumcision-site

As the boys waited their turn to be circumcised, each painted an image on the overhanging cliff.
Some of the images reminded me of crops and had a strong resemblance to some of the Dogon masks we had seen. I found it interesting that most of the child-level paintings had a similar style.
