We shall stop in Djoliba the village of one of Mali’s most famous musicians, Salif Keita, then to Kirina where Soundiata, the king of Manden, defeated Soumaoro Kante in the battle of 1235. It was after that war the first constitution was created called the “Chart of Kourougan Fouga”.
We continue to Kela, Home of Griots, guardians of Malian history. From centuries to the present date, knowledge has been passed on from one generation to another by mouth to ear.
We will visit the chief Griot’s house. We shall also visit the sacred house of Kangaba. The roof of that house rejects any straw brought by any person born out of wedlock during its renewal ceremony that is held every 7 years.
After the visit, drive back to Bamako.
