AFRICAN DOLLS
Most African small figures that we call "dolls" could function
both as a toy for a young girl or as an ritual object that had other spiritual,
magical or traditional purposes in each culture.
If you are looking for a particular tribe or object please check our
alphabetical list of images and catalogs.
