You can download this PDF graphic novel free at the following UNESCO website:

An interesting graphic novel about the Women Warriors of Dahomey, produced by UNESCO as part of their Women in Africa project or resources.

I have previously posted about these female warriors and made the start on some Pound store plastic soldier conversions

Interesting Dahomey flags https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Dahomey_flag_1889.svg

I have temporarily mislaid my pound store conversions of plastic soldiers into Dahomey Amazons but will eventually finish them. I don’t know of any current manufacturers of Dahomey Amazon gaming figures.
