In the traditional African context, the society of masks is a school where children and adolescents learn to become men. On the Bandiagara cliff, in Dogon country, in Mali, under the strict supervision of an initiation master, young men carve masks from tree trunks with adzes and braid fibers to make hoods, skirts, bracelets and all the accessories that make up the equipment of the masks.
