- Scope and Contents
- This photograph was taken by Dr. Simon Ottenberg while conducting field research at Afikpo village-group, southeastern Nigeria, from September 1959 to December 1960.
- Original caption reads, "An ocici to take to farm. A simpler version of the more elaborate ceremonial form; the latter found widespread among the Igbo. In both cases a sauce, usually of palm oil and peppers, with perhaps other ingrediants, is placed in it and dipped into with yams or dried fish or another food. Probably made at Afikpo. Whole ocici with fiber handle, ready to be taken to the farm. Note the typical Afikpo clay water pots." [Ottenberg field research notes, September 1959-December 1960, Part II].
