Zande youth gathering eleusine

Collection: pittriversmuseum.edwardevanevanspritchard
Description: A male youth gathering eleusine coracana (millet) into a basket (type known as bangiribambamba, with eye-shaped open weave). This crop was once the most important base for porridge and beer, but has been displaced to some extent by manioc, a highly drought and pest resistant tuber, which is however somewhat less nutritious than flour produced from grain such as eleusine.
