Egg-shaped woven Burkina Faso granaries. In Tiebele, a woman is not permitted to look inside a granary because to do so would indicate that she was looking around for new seeds, i.e., to cheat on her husband. Once again, I am moved to muse upon the possible irony levels obtained in other societies. Are the informants who repeated this story in the same frat as the sources who told a credulous American media that hippies called sunglasses "tea shades" and that twenty-somethings say "Word!" and "Dog!" as a matter of course? When Burkinabes come to America, do they learn of American mores from the Hokey Pokey and Susan Jane?
