Abstract
This paper investigates the repeated patterns found in the art of Benin, classifying them on the basis of the 24 plane crystallographic groups. Although the patterns are less varied than in Bakuba art, studied in an earlier paper [1971], the same number, 19, of types occurs. Drawings of each are given, including many examples of each of the seven “one-dimensional” types.
