The Dogon people of Mali live approximately 180 miles from Timbuktu where they cultivate various crops. They store their crops in tall granaries with window-like openings. Dogon Doors are made with separate panels of wood and carved with ancestral figures & scenes of life that symbolically protect their entrance. The more complex the engraving of the door, the higher the family's status within the village. Measurements 1.67m x 620m
