The Bambara are a Mande-speaking people located mostly in Mali, West Africa. They live in nucleated village communities and most Bambara earn their living cultivating a variety of crops and raising domesticated animals. Many augment their income by participating in a variety of non-agricultural activities including trade, wage labor, and small-scale craft production.
