Check out the largest Mud Mosque in the World - in Djenne, Mali. Facinating. They re-mud it annually using the embedded ladders. Wow.

Minyanka (also known as Mamara, Miniyanka, Minya, Mianka, Minianka, or Tupiire) is a northern Senufo language spoken by about 700,000 people in southeastern Mali. It is closely related to Supyire. Minyanka is one of the national languages of Mali.
 
Commentary: Haruna - It is likely the Minya people or the Bamana are a natural integration of the Bambara, Malinke', Fula, Dioula, and the Brong Ahafo of Ghana. They are found mainly in the confluence of these three communities between the Niger and Volta rivers from Sikasso in Mali to Brong Ahafo in Ghana - The Senufo people. It will be interesting to hear a sampling of the Minianka language. A gentleman Mininka by the name of Yaya Diallo shares some culture with us but he focuses more on the medicine, music, and dance culture of his folk. Interesting investigations for a sociologist or a linguist. Halifa or Sidia of PDOIS. I heard Sidia was involved in the common alphabetisation of African Languages. I shall call him to see if he knows anything about the Minianka.
