| Item description and ethnic group | The Baule granary doors are important aspects of architecture that linked the people to common aspects of their daily life. Most often there would be carving of figures that represent ancestors, but more prominent are sculptural motifs that represent animals or creatures that are important in their tribal mythology. |
