Why AFRICANS Are NOT the BARBARIANS We Thou6ht Them

~ ECENT discoveries Of Professor Leo Frobenius,
TX the famous German explorer and archeologst,
have proved that Africans are not the ignorant
oarbarlans have usually thought them to be- They
prove that high degree OF civilization combined with
high artistic ability has existed in various parts Of
Africa and still exists to-day.
The objects collected by Frobenus have been placed
on exhibition in museum in Berlin and have excited
great interest BY their artistic character
The professor points out that African art has Pc
culiar character because the life OF the African is
passed entirely outdoors. whereas the mental life OF
European is associated With the interior.
The objects made directly from natural material
without great artificial changes. This gives them q
primitive character, but thoroughly in harmony
with the maera! treated. Each material has its spe
ca' ornamentaton The orDamentation used upon wood
is never the same that used upon iron and so forth

people OF Central Africa had communication with the
ancient Greeks and with the prehistoric civilized peo
