At a time when nations are reclaiming stolen cultural artefacts, a collection of Samburu cultural objects has returned to its origins. Writer and researcher Rhodia Mann, an avid chronicler of Northern Kenya’s pastoral communities for decades recently, donated her entire collection to a new museum in Samburu County.
The repatriated artefacts are at the Rhodia Mann Museum of Samburu Culture at Sasaab, a lodge in the Westgate Community Conservancy.
