Despite their appearance most of these granary doors were probably carved to be sold.
These doors protected the window-like opening into each family's grain
storage building, and used a simple sliding door lock. Primordial beings,
ancestors, Kanaga masks, sun lizards and scenes of life symbolically served
to protect the entrance by making it sacrosanct. The low reliefs are carved
on several panels, held together by iron staples.
