A great many also migrated across the Ruvuma River during colonial times to work on sisal farms in Tanzania, where they remain. Makonde carvers are prolific producers of masks, statues, and decorative objects. This family tree was carved from a single piece of solid ebony wood. The carving intricately illustrates many people climbing above each other. This unique piece required many many hours of carving at the hands of its creator
