一个木质雕塑 - Prampram - 迦納

A PramPram couple of Ghana, with a loincloth around their hip, posted on wooden stands. They show traces of sacrifications. According of Babba Sylla, an Antique Dealer of the Nima market, collected about 50km from Accra, the same place where Karl Heinz Krieg several years before his dead made fieldworks and discovered some other mostly small figures. The population of the Prampram at the southern partn of Ghana was - according of Sylla - very small, not "a real tribe, more a big family". After our first assumption, we suspected that these figures, because of their local proximity to the Ewe and Dangwe, had their origins in this region of Ghana. Stylistically, however, a certain closeness to the Moba in the Northern part of Ghana was obvious. This assumption was later confirmed by further informaants that small Prampram populations still exist near both Kumasi and Wa. The figures from the north should be painted in contrast to the figures of the Southern region. We saw already one of these sculptures, but it was so fragmentary and eroded by insect damages, that we didn´t buy this item, unknowing at that time how important under ethnological aspects this voucher copy was. Any how the sniffer dog inside of me is ready doing his work..;-). But without some greenbacks I can´t do my work. A resaech-report of Karl Heinz Krieg, a video of Baba Sylla and several Fieldphotos on request. Until now we have collected about 1 1/2 dozen Prampram sculpture. We would like to sell the whole collection of these in the Lit. unknown sculptures of the remants of a recently discovered tribe. "A great discovery were the so called "Prampram" sculptures, which are stylistically related to the Northern part of the small tribes in Northern Ghana and Togo, in particular the Moba. In my interview Baba Sylla, Accra, Ghana, isn´t speaking about a "tribe“, he named it "a great family", which seems to be incorrect under anthropological aspects, but it is a link to the fact, how small this "tribe" is or was in reality. May be this is the reason that these sculptures are unknown in literature.
