Cameroon has over 250 ethnic groups – each with distinct traditions, clothing, languages, dances, and crafts. The Bamileke, Fang, Fulani, and Bakweri are just a few examples.


Traditional masks and carvings are central to Cameroonian art — used in ceremonies, storytelling, and spiritual rites. The Bamileke masks, especially the Elephant Mask, symbolize power and royalty.
