According to the legend, the first ancestor benefited from
graces and advices of God for his journey. The cavalier smith
built an arch having the shape of a basket, and containing all which
is necessary for the man; a basket, units of measure, geometrical figures,
materials of forge, tools, seeds.
This symbolic representation of the arc meets itself at Dogon; bowl
forms in parallélépipédique with two handles representing
the head and the tail of the horse.
