This earthenware jar was bequeathed by my grandfather; it was tested and authenticated by thermoluminescence in 2008 by Olivier Langevin. It originates from Africa, Mali, Djenné culture. Dating between the 12th and 16th centuries AD (XII–XVI). 42.5 cm in height. Regarding import, I have no additional information; I received it after my grandfather’s death. And it was dated at my request in 2008. Normally at that period there were no particular restrictions; I don’t know more about this jar, but I have owned it only since 2008, my grandfather never spoke to me about it and I didn’t even know he had an ancient African jar before receiving it. If this information is not sufficient I’m sorry, but I don’t have any more.

Concernant l'importation je n'ai aucune information supplémentaire je l'ai reçu après la mort de mon grand père 
Et elle a été daté à ma demande en 2008 
Normalement à cette période il n'y avait de restriction particulière je ne sais sûr cette Jarre rien de plus mais je ne la possède que depuis 2008 , mon grand père ne m'en à jamais parlé et je ne savais même pas qu'il avait une jarre africaine ancienne avant de la recevoir.
Si ces informations ne suffisent pas je suis désolée mais je n'en ai pas d'autres.
