Les villages Dogons de la falaise de Bandiagara (Mali)

Bandiagara Escarpment and Dogons villages (Mali)
(first Ireli (geolocalization), after Amani and last Tireli)

Les Dogons sont un peuple du Mali, en Afrique de l'Ouest. Leur population est estimée à 700 000 personnes[réf. nécessaire]. Ils occupent la région qui va de la falaise de Bandiagara au sud-ouest de la boucle du Niger. Quelques Dogons sont installés dans le nord du Burkina Faso, d'autres se sont installés en Côte d'Ivoire.
Les Dogons sont avant tout des cultivateurs (essentiellement du mil) et des forgerons. Ils sont réputés pour leur cosmogonie et leurs sculptures. La langue parlée par les Dogons est le dogon qui regroupe plusieurs dialectes. Il existe aussi une langue secrète, le sigi so, langue réservée à la société des masques. Les Dogons sont liés avec lethnie des Bozos par la parenté à plaisanterie. Dogons et Bozos se moquent réciproquement, mais parallèlement se doivent assistance.
Les Dogons seraient venus du Mandé, région située au sud-ouest du Mali au XIVe siècle pour éviter l'islamisation. Ils se seraient installés à Kani Bonzon avant de se disperser sur trois sites que sont la Falaise de Bandiagara (site mis en 2003 sur la liste mondiale du patrimoine de l'UNESCO), le plateau (région de Sangha) et la plaine. Cette falaise était alors habitée par les Tellem, portant aussi le nom de kurumba. D'après les Dogons, les Bana ont précédé les Tellem. Même s'ils ont longtemps subi la domination des divers peuples ayant créé de grands empires ou royaumes, les Dogons ont toujours su conserver leur indépendance à cause de la difficulté d'accès à leurs territoires montagneux isolés. Les Dogons luttèrent farouchement contre les Mossis à l'epoque de l'empire sonhrai, puis contre les Peuls à partir du XVIIe siècle. Les Dogons et les Soninkés sont très liés, les Dogons étaient parfois influencés culturellement et linguistiquement par les Soninkés dont certains se sont mélangés aux Dogons lors de leur grande dispersion après la chute de l'empire du Ghana.


The Dogon are a group of people living in the central plateau region of Mali, south of the Niger bend near the city of Bandiagara in the Mopti region. They number just under 800,000. The Dogon are best known for their mythology, their mask dances, wooden sculpture and their architecture. The past century has seen significant changes in the social organization, material culture and beliefs of the Dogon, partly because Dogon country is one of Mali's major tourist attraction
The principal Dogon area is bisected by the Bandiagara Escarpment, a sandstone cliff of up to 500m (1,640 ft) high, stretching for about 150km (almost 100 miles). To the southeast of the cliff, the sandy Séno-Gondo Plains are found, and northwest of the cliff are the Bandiagara Highlands. The current population is at least 450,000. Historically, Dogon villages have frequently fallen victim to Islamic slave raiders.Neighboring Islamic tribal groups acted as slave merchants, as the growth of cities increased the demand for slaves across the region of West Africa. The historical pattern has included murder of indignenous males by Islamic jihadists and enslavement of women and children. As early as the 12th century the Dogon people fled west to avoid conversion to Islam and enslavement.
At the end of the eighteenth century, the jihads that were triggered by the resurgence of Islam caused slaves to be sought for warfare. Dogon insecurity in the face of these historical pressures caused them to locate their villages in defensible positions along the walls of the escarpment. The other factor influencing their choice of settlement location is water. The Niger River is nearby and in the sandstone rock, a rivulet runs at the foot of the cliff at the lowest point of the area during the wet season.

Finding a way from Mopti to Timbuktu, Mali

Mopti on the Niger river is the first, or last major port town from Timbuktu. After over 2 weeks of traveling overland from Accra Ghana we arrived. Finding transport to Timbuktu would not be that easy. It took three days. We originally planned on a public pinasse to stay with our adventure of all local transport, but even for us hard core travellers upon seeing the pinasses we said, no way. So we found a car. During this time the Tuaregs were known as the bandits of the Sahara. Our driver drove fast, really fast.
