From Cameroon to Paris: Mousgoum Architecture in and Out of Africa Annotated edition

The kind of domed house constructed by Chad and Cameroon's Mousgoum peoples has long held sway over Western imagination. This book shows that this beehive-shaped structure known as teleuk has been cast from a sign of authenticity to a tourist destination.
