Reseña del libro "Senegal Culture and Traditional art (en Inglés)"
Senegal Culture and Traditional Art. Ethnics and Traditions, Goree Island Slave Trade Export, Tourism Information. Senegal is famous for its talented artisans who can be found in the major markets, creating and selling their wares. Beautiful gold, silver, and bronze jewelry are exquisitely crafted. Antique beads and large amber necklaces, traditionally worn by the Fulani women, can be found in the markets and antique shops. The Blacksmiths constitute the socio-professional group that made the tools, the jewelries, and other materials, using steel, iron, gold, and other metals. Had the Senegalese society followed a normal path of socio-economic development, the Blacksmiths would perhaps be the metallurgical industrials of Senegal today. Baskets, pottery, hand-woven fabrics with incredibly intricate patterns are renowned great buys. Leather, iguana, crocodile and snake skins are used to create handbags, shoes, belts and other accessories. The Cobblers have been busy with transforming animal skins. They made shoes, harnesses and other materials from animal skins. They certainly would have been the big makers of a Senegalese brand of Nike, Rebok, or Bata, today
