    DescriptionTrapezoidal bags are considered to be Voltaic (Dogon, Mossi, etc.) but are sold and used over such a wide area that style becomes almost irrelevant. The collection information for this one tells us little more than that it was purchased from a Hausa trader in a Nigerian market.

    There are no works to discover for this record.
