The Bambara People

I am a member of Bambara. Initially, we were hunters who live in a hostile environment without continuously supplying resources. From 16th to 20th, we tended to learn to plant fields and cultivate crops. The increase in permanent settlement and the philosophy of sculptural style were dedicated to the best life, in particular the beast God Chihara. The sculpture I made is similar in shape to the antelope symbolizing Kaiwara. This sculpture is actually a mask or a hat worn by Korean society to commemorate the season of each society during the Chihara Festival.

Bambara (Bamanankaw) introduced many artistic traditions and started making works. Before money became the main driving force for their creation, they used the ability as sacred crafts to show spiritual pride, religious beliefs and customs. In the example work, there is a Bamananmo mask. Other statues were built for hunters and farmers so that other statues can leave food after long agricultural work and group hunting. Bambara's art style change is an extreme sculpture, mask and headdress that displays style or realistic features as well as weathered or inlaid patina. Until recently, the function of Bambara's work has been enigmatic, but in the past two decades, certain types of characters and hats are related to some of the societies that have built the life of Bambara It was indicated by the survey.

"2.5 million Bambang people are also known as Bamanans, Mali's largest ethnic group and occupy the prairie area in the central part of the country, they rely primarily on agricultural living, the Bambara kingdom Established in the 17th century, it peaked from 1760 to 1787. During the reign of N'goloDiarra, Peul was conquered and claimed, the city of Jenne and Timbuktu, but the kingdom in the 19th century Began to decline when it arrived in 1892 and eventually fell into France.

In the 1700s, there were two Kingdom of Bambara, Segu and Kata. In the 1800s, aggressive Muslim groups overthrew these kingdoms, and only anti-Muslim bambas objected to their profession. It lasted 40 years until the arrival of the Frenchman. By 1912, only 3% of Bambara became Islam. After the Second World War, the resistance to France and contact with Muslim merchants increased the number of Muslim secrets. Bambara is 70% Muslim today. Most of Bambara is a farmhouse. Even though a large amount of sorghum and peanuts are produced, their main crop is millet. Maize, cassava, tobacco and many other vegetables are also grown in private gardens. Unfortunately, drought and other ecological programs have hurt farmers for many years. Banbara farmers also breed cattle, horses, goats, sheep and chickens.
