Description:
The open sided shelter (baruti) seen in the background of many portraits taken by Evans-Pritchard, possibly constructed for Evans-Pritchard's use, but since there is a fence between this shelter and Evans-Pritchard's sleeping hut out of frame to the left, it may be a meeting shelter belonging to the chief. A number of informants or neighbours are looking on.
