Benin before 1904 Caption "Le Roi de Sakété" Photographer/publisher unknown
Another view of the king of Sakéte, a small Yoruba kingdom north of Porto Novo. The sender comments on the king's "gallantry" in placing two of his wives in the position of honour at his right side. Note the hairstyles of the two ladies and of the kneeling servant.
