Pays Dogon, MALIMore information:
The abandoned dwellings of a Dogon village sit high up the Escarpment near Ende. The villagers abandoned their homes to form settlements on the plains, closer to arable land. The elevated position of the village was originally intended as a defence against marauding slave traders.
