Traditional Barns in Nok
Description
These types of traditional food storage facilities (Barns)are mostly found in the hiding caves on the Nok Hills. •The ancients stored their food in these barns which can preserve food until the next farming season. •These ones predate Christ! •Relics like these need to be preserved and the area safeguarded against vandals. A lot of the NOK Terracotta figurines have found their way into the international black markets! The need to improve and safeguard these tourist destinations cannot be over emphasized. These Barns are located in a hiding cave right below the Tree of Life.
