A young boy has made a lorry (truck) from tin cans and other discarded materials. The wheels are made from worn-out "flip-flop" shoes and the string tied to the front allows him to pull the truck. Behind him in the distance, to the right, is the wooden shed that housed one of the area's first corn-grinding mills. Ahenkro, 2000.
View to the southeast, standing on the small hill west of Kabruno. The mountains in the distance are the range near Boase. Several villages appear in the foreground. Left to right is Gbao, Dompofie and (far right) Samwa. Banda area, 2000.
View to the south, standing on the small hill west of Kabruno. The mountain gap through which the Tombԑ River flows is marked by the small hill, far left, and the small hill to its right. Banda area, 2000.

View to the west from the crest of the Banda hills, north of Ahenkro. The view encompasses land that since 1971 has been part of Bui National Park, a Wildlife Protected Area covering more than 1800 km2. Prior to that, these lands west of the Banda hills were important to local people as a source of "bush meat." Archaeological evidence suggests that for centuries hunting was provided an important food source for Banda peoples. Banda hills, 2000.
