Taken during the Citroen Centre Afrique expedition in 1927, this image showcases the vibrant dance performance known as Kuli-Kuta. Intriguingly, this dance is a parody of the ancient human sacrifices that took place in Dahomey. It serves as a powerful reminder of how traditions evolve over time, transforming from solemn rituals into lively celebrations. The lithograph's colorful depiction captures the essence of this transformation, with men adorned in white robes and pigtail hairstyles engaging in rhythmic movements.
