Details
The Ndebele are among the smallest tribes in Southern Africa, but are easily one of the most colourful and distinctive. Over the years dolls have played an important part in the Ndebele culture.
During courtship, a suitor would place a doll outside a young woman's hut, indicating his intention to marry her.
