Rich in symbolic motifs and geometric patterns, these ceremonial doors represent authority, prestige, and the artistic legacy of Bamoun court craftsmanship. The Bamoun people have a long and rich history and their artistic expressions are deeply intertwined with their royal heritage, cultural beliefs, and ceremonial practices. Bamoun court arts flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries, when artists working solely for the palace created elaborate bead-covered thrones and stools, wooden sculptures, human and animal masks, architectural carvings and fine objects in bronze, ivory and clay.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA;\"\u003eAbout the Tribe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA;\"\u003eBamum, also spelled Bamoun, is a West African ethnic group from the Kingdom of Bamoun in present-day Cameroon. They speak a language that is often used as a lingua franca and is related to the Benue-Congo branch of the Niger-Congo family.
