Fire Hunts in Mali, West Africa: A Photo Journal

M. Sid Kelly

4.9/5 (30045 ratings)

Description:This photo journal contains 38 color photographs with written descriptions accompanying each. The photographs illustrate events that are not easily witnessed without exceptional access and exceptional friends. The first section depicts a fire hunt that was conducted mainly by young men and children, with only a couple of adult hunters with guns participating. The second section shows a fire hunt that was organized and conducted by older, established hunters. And the final few pictures illustrate additional points about the culture of Malian hunters.These hunts typically took place on Mondays, which is known as The Devil's Day. The Devil supposedly owned the gold in the river. So out of respect, the people did not mine gold on Mondays -- they hunted and fished instead.And I've taken the opportunity to say a few things about the hunter I knew best - the one pictured on the cover - Lasine Koné. A section called About Lasine Koné is included in the body of this book just below a picture of him.Show more Show lessWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
