an excellent link thanks for sharing

Yes nice link on African arms.........what about African legs? :D

if there were african legs to collect, then they would be in the pitt rivers museum. probably the most comprehensive 'private' collections of ethno in the world. they have hoards of pieces from so many cultures. unfortunately, as far as i am aware, the upper galleries are now closed for refurb. no photography allowed, but i did sneak a camera in once :-)
i look forward to them opening again. the displays are very poorly shown though, and many potentially interesting pieces cant be seen (unless you are either 8 foot tall, 2 foot tall and have infa-red vision.
my purchase of a small torch, now always on hand in my car, came from a random visit to oxford, and i try to carry it whenever i am near a museum just in case.
