Description


Namji dolls, also known as Namchi dolls, originate from the Namji (or Namchi) people, an ethnic group in northern Cameroon. These dolls are traditionally carved from wood and decorated with beads, cowrie shells, and other materials. They serve as fertility symbols and are often given to young girls to encourage motherhood or used in rituals related to fertility and protection.
The Namji people have a rich cultural tradition, and these dolls are a significant part of their artistic and spiritual heritage, reflecting their beliefs surrounding fertility, protection, and social status.
