Bag
Bags made from raffia palm bast played a prominent role in societies in the grasslands of Cameroon. Certain raffia bags indicate the status of the person carrying or giving them. This can be recognised by the design, such as motifs or weaving techniques. Some patterns are restricted to members of secret societies. The bags here in Freiburg are quite small in comparison. They were therefore probably made either for children or, more likely, for trade with colonial actors.
