About this object

Wooden figure  figure of the ADAN EWE tribe from Togo. Wonderfull patina of age with clear traces of wear and tear. The Ewe are a population of West Africa living mainly in the south-east of Ghana in the south of Togo where they are in the majority. They are also found in the southwest of Benin, the city of Notse in Togo is considered as the cradle of this people. Despite the influence of the so-called revealed religions, it is a people who always remain firmly rooted in its traditions, particularly in the worship of ancestors.
