Perched atop Maliโs Bandiagara Escarpment, the Dogon, known as people of the cliffs, stage the Sigui every 60 years, aligning masks and chants to Sirius Bโs orbit โ a binary star their ancestors tracked millennia before Western telescopes confirmed it. Their layered symbols carved into cliff granaries symbolize a link between human fate and cosmic cycles.
Sounds like something from a sci-fi movie, right?
Africa, as it turns out, does not reveal itself to those in a hurry.
Soโฆ do you have a little time?
