content: Information from researcher/donor Judith Knight. “ Icyungo” Open cooking pot, made by the Twa of Rwanda. This is a domestic cooking pot used by the Twa themselves and sold in the local markets to neighboring ethnic groups. Whereas the Twa used to have a monopoly on these types of wares, in 1993, they were becoming much less prevalent due to the influx of Geri cans, and restricted access to resources such as clay, stones and water. Collected by donor from Batwa village, Shirongi Rwanda, 1995.
