East African films by Jean Brown (1970s)
In 2003 the Pitt Rivers Museum received four 16mm films by anthropologist Jean Brown, probably dating to the 1970s. The films recorded Luhya (both Wanga and Isuka) smiths working metal, Kamba men making a drum, and the Maasai ceremony of Catching the Bull by the Horns.
