The Tellem were the people who inhabited the Bandiagara Escarpment but were forced out by the arrival of the Dogon people around the 14th century. The Tellem built dwellings right into the face of the escarpment and many are still visible in the area. Some Tellem buildings are still in use by the Dogon.
