While the men hunt, fish, and tend gardens the women weave some of the technically finest and most beautiful baskets ever before seen. The fibers are obtained from wild palm trees and colorfully dyed with extracts of plant leaves, bark and mud." With article by Sandy Green from the Glenn Green Galleries.
