Barotse Women -- Women of the Barotse Chief's Court perform the Dance of Welcome, called the 'Limba'. It is a peculiar shuffling kind of dance to a rhythm provided by the Africa xylophone (Silimba) and drums made from gourds. It goes on for hours. In the foreground are two fine examples of the Court dress worn by the Barotse women. This was the dance that intrigued the former Secretary of State for the Colonies Mr. James Griffiths, on his recent visit to Barotseland. June 23, 1952.

Bowl Lyre 19th century Ugandan or Kenyan Decorative lyre made for export, with gourd body and antelope horn arms. The rim of the gourd is decorated with bristles. Lyres have two wood or horn arms that project from the body and carry a crossbar to which the upper ends of the strings are fastened. The strings lie nearly parallel to the soundtable. African lyre bodies are made of wood, gourds, tortoise or coconut shells. Most African lyres lack bridges; the strings vibrate against the soundtable to create a buzzing sound..
