多贡人以小米栽培为生。

他们的田地分布在横贯高原的狭小山谷，或依附在悬崖崖壁上，长度不过数米，甚至更窄。

这些“田地”靠石墙支撑，只有借助绳梯才能进入。

面具是村中所有成年男性所属的男性社会的核心标志，如今仅用于男性葬礼以及每两三年为重要人物举行的吊唁聚会。它们在播种或收获仪式中不发挥作用，尽管有时也可作为禁止标志，用以保护作物或果实免受侵扰。

面具通常保存在村子之外，避开女性的视线，靠近陪衬其展示的纤维服饰，以及“面具之母”——一张巨大的面孔，由蜿蜒的木板延展，最长可达十米。

The Dogon live off millet cultivation. Their fields occupy the small valleys that crisscross the plateau or cling to the cliff escarpments, a few meters long and even narrower. Some of these “fields,” supported by a stone wall, can only be accessed by a rope ladder. Masks, which are the essential attribute of the men's society to which all adults in the village belong, are now only used at male funerals and at gatherings to lift mourning held every two or three years for important figures. They play no role in the planting or harvesting rituals, although they may be used as a sign of prohibition to protect crops or fruits from possible trespassing. The masks are generally kept outside the village, hidden from female eyes, near the fiber costumes that accompany their display and near the “mother of masks,” an enormous human face extended by a sinuous board that can reach up to ten meters in length.
