Granary Door/Shutter - Dogon People, Mali M22 - Sold

In Dogon mythology, the world was like a granary which contained compartments for the different seeds God gave to mankind. The original granary came down from heaven on a rainbow, crashing down to earth and scattering human beings, animals, & vegetables. Grain is so precious to them, that the iconography on the door is intended to protect it.
