This book re-examines historical, ethnographic and anthropological
productions in various spaces in Senegambia. Just like language,
material culture in original forms is powerful in the transmission
and affirmation of identity. Unfortunately, archeology has so far
played a very minor role in this domain in Senegambia, as the
discipline has been confined to the study of eras know as
'prehistoric' and 'protohistoric', which are little known by story
tellers and other traditional communicators. It is generally agreed
that archeology generates more inclusive knowledge, given the fact
that the essential source of identity for all societal strata is
based on the production, consumption, rejection or recycling of
material culture. This book democratizes knowledge generation by
giving prominence to the social life and identities of ordinary
individuals who are often invisible in written and oral sources.
