SANGO STYLE RELIQUARY GUARDIANS REMOTE TEST

Images added from other folders and same folder (older images)

I think you should check with your hosting provider, because code is absolutely perfect, if one image is flashing because of same location and other image is not showing, so Dreamweaver is uploading them but your server is not giving permission to show them.

SANGO STYLE RELIQUARY FIGURES, Gabon

Figures like these, smaller and less familiar than Bakota and Mahongwe religuary guardians, were usually placed in basketry containers holding relics of important clan ancestors. Sheathed in metal (brass or copper), the figures are abstracted into a diamond shape below the neck. Sango 3 is mounted on an iron gong.

Old Sango guardians are very rare. Despite their appearance, these Sango figures show little evidence of age or use and were probably made to be sold.
