| Adama wears a gele on her head. |
The printing on the side of the box she comes in reads:
"Attired in traditional dress representing the country of Nigeria, Adama is one in a series of collectible porcelain dolls from around the world.
Nigeria, one of the largest nations on the African continent, lies on the west coast facing the Gulf of Guinea. Forty-thousand years of history echo throughout the land. The advanced thinking and creativity of early civilizations helped to shape Nigeria.
Nigeria's rich heritage is due to the over 250 ethnic groups that live across the country. Each contributing, yet keeping their own distinct cultural traits. The people of Nigeria are as diverse as their scenery - combining traditional customs with modern life."
- Adama's leg was repaired and the fabric around her shoulder plate switched out for bleached cotton batting so that her cloths would remain unstained.
