At the heart of the mysterious lands of Africa echo the echoes of an ancient tradition. A tradition passed down through the ages, preserving ancestral stories and forgotten legends. At the center of this epic are the guardians of knowledge and masters of speech: the griots.
But who are these mysterious artisans of the spoken word? Dive into the world of griots, let yourself be enchanted by their ancient art, and discover a cultural heritage that transcends time. Griots, also known as jalimusow or jalis or djeli, are iconic figures in Sub-Saharan Africa. They are storytellers, poets, musicians, and guardians of oral tradition. Their central role is to transmit the history, culture, and values of their community through narratives, songs, and artistic performances.
