Some, those who do not know the customs of which are still proud today, like Artaban V, the Parthian king, not the other, that of Cleopatra seen by Gautier de Costes de La Calprenède, (not easy to put this name on a bank card, whether blue or Visa, simple or first and gold or even American Express) So the Relaune box is still used today by the women of a banana plantation in Angola on the border of Zambia to store their meager savings and a lock of hair from the family's first male child. Traditionally this Relaune is made from wood of Chlorophora excelsa, a particular variety found only in the northern half of the Cabinda enclave. But the copy that has come down to me is unfortunately not of this essence. Anyway, this box still bears the traces of the coins it contained and it is moving to imagine its owner going to buy fish with his meager savings from the sale of bananas to stock up on the head of fish destined for to make soup for her children. I want with this image to pay tribute to Hiki and her sister Ooli whom I kiss affectionately.
