Context (Related Documents)
The 'List of articles collected in N.Ghana for Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology, Cambridge, by Anna Craven, March- October 1964', numbers the baskets as G16 A-B, and notes they were both purchased for "3/". There is no reference that they were made by the Gonja, and the term on the label, written by the collector, "Kuhenuwe" is presumably the local name in Gonja. The list also hyphenates the name for B as "aliba- kuturuwe".
