Description: A child sits inside a dome-shaped shelter. Also visible inside the shelter are a large upright basket, piles of collected logs, one large log and two small vessels. Two large metal vessels and one smaller vessel are on the ground outside the shelter and the large vessel on the right hand side is filled with water. A thin cloud of smoke just behind this vessel suggests it may be being heated, although the cloud could just be of dust. The shelter is made by bending branches into arc shapes to form a dome before this framework is covered with leaves.
