You know how various modern imaging techniques are revealing alternate renditions of masterpieces hidden below the top layers of paint? When future art historians get their hands on the iPads of today’s digital artists, pawing through the hidden layers in their files will also reveal alternate renditions.

Sometimes, things just don't go to plan. The was off exhibit at yesterday. We had a splendid time anyway; the rain kept the crowds very low indeed. Still, I would like to have seen Padme (the aardvark) on National Aardvark Day.

More info about the (here called the anteater) & 's inclusion in Chi Wara design from Bamana: The Art of Existence in Mali, p. 204, available free online with many photos of Chi Wara on pp. 200-33: issuu.com/theafricacenternewyo

"Chi wara" means "laboring wild animal" & is the name of the mythical human- hybrid credited with teaching the Bamana farming. The & 's industrious digging of the earth inspires their inclusion in the design.
More examples:
mid-19th to early 20th c., Baninko region, Mali; wood, metal, brass tacks, grasses. Art Institute of Chicago:

Early to mid-20th c., Mande, Mali; metal, mixed media, string, wood. NC Museum of Art:

: In addition to Korèdugaso heads, the Bamana also incorporate into the composite animal designs of the ChiWara. A commonly seen combo is horns + back + head & lower body.

Paired male & female with baby ChiWara (Ci-wara Kun), Bamana, Mali (likely Ségou region), late 19th-early 20th c., wood & metal, Brooklyn Museum:

Here's one carved as a single piece with stick included, from Bamana: The Art of Existence in Mali (2001). It's available free online, this + 6 more examples of Korèdugaso are on pp. 126-9: duendeartprojects.com/blog/53-
"Head of a ritual buffoon, Korèduga, wooden horse. The head represented Timba, the anteater [aka ]. The ears are pierced for attachment of adornments. The ritual buffoons ride a hobby horse in their pantomimes. They incarnate wisdom and have the right to ridicule people."

: examples of late 19th-early 20th c. "Korèdugaso" from the Bamana of Mali. You may see these labeled as "hobby horses" because they're mounted on sticks & ridden by Korè jesters, but they're heads!

@CoinOfNote I have one of those Zambia coins in my collection :D
Sadly it's the only circulating coin that's ever had an aardvark on it, right? That and the one commemorative one from the Gambia also shown on the Numista site. Zambia is the real MVP because they put the aardvark on one of their banknotes too, once again apparently the only nation ever to do so: en.numista.com/catalogue/note2

The is many things, but clumsy isn't one of them - they can be FAST when they need to be (have been clocked at speeds of over 25mph/40kph) and have impressive evasive maneuving capabilities.
