    Abstract: This groundbreaking volume examines the extraordinary artistic and cultural traditions of the African region known as the Sahel ("shore" in Arabic), a vast area on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert that includes present-day Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, and Chad. This is the first book to present a comprehensive overview of the diverse cultural achievements and traditions of the region, spanning more than 1,300 years from the pre-Islamic period through the 19th century. It features some of the earliest extant art from Africa as well as such iconic works as sculptures by the Dogon and Bamana peoples of Mali. Essays by leading international scholars discuss the art, architecture, archaeology, literature, philosophy, religion, and history of the Sahel, exploring the unique cultural landscape in which these ancient communities flourished. Richly illustrated and brilliantly argued, Sahel brings to life the enduring creativity of the different peoples who lived, traded, and traveled through this crossroads of the world.

    Abstract: After a renovation that lasted more than two years, the Ethnographic Museum of the Banco de la República, opened in 1988 based around an invaluable collection donated by Minor Capuchin friar, Antonio Jover Lamaña, in 1960. The new museum worked closely with the Bogotá-based Gold Museum and decided to structure the exhibition around three themes, starting with the Outer Journey that covers 11,000 years of pre-history from when the first inhabitants settled the Amazon River Basin to the extraction of rubber in the 19th century. The Inner Journey presents the pre-Hispanic past and the immense cultural and linguistic diversity of the Colombian Amazon. Finally, the Ethnographic Chamber compries hundreds of objects from three of the more than 50 ethnic groups living today in the region - Uitoto, Yukunas and Ticunas - are exhibited. These objects also reveal the important role of sacred plants in the ritual celebrations of the Yukunas and rites of passage of the Ticuna. The new museum includes a library, children's room, a regional documentation center and garden of medicinal plants
