Dogon Country - Mali
In eastern Mali are the beautiful Dogon Villages. An 150km long escarpment cuts the Dogon country off from the rest of Mali. There are 40 villages that run along the escarpment. The Tellem people used to live there first high up in the rock, then the Dogon people moved in and took over the area. They still keep the houses preserved in the rock and use them for occasional village ceromonies, but they now live down below on solid ground!
