Dogon country located in the central plateau region of Mali has become a destination for travel enthusiasts looking to explore the unique architecture, art, music, and fashion of the Dogon people. They are not afraid of color, and are quite fashionable. They've been up on the bright fringe (see Lanvin) that has been popping up on runways lately. The Dogon tribe is also highly advanced in astrophysics. French anthropologist Marcel Griaule is most known for his extensive studies of the Dogon people from 1931 to 1956. Giraule uncovered their in depth knowledge about the star, Sirius or the "Dog Star".
