This is a old wooden container carved from a soft wood that is only found in the dessert region of Northern Kenya and Somali.
It is used by the nomadic Somali people to store goats milk, a very valuable commodity for this culture.
It would have been contained inside a wicker framed basket and tied to the back of a camel.
