Pilot to a Peace Corps: Operation Crossroads Africa 

Market Stall in Eha Amufu, Nigeria

This marketplace was the service project for the 1960 Eastern Nigeria Crossroads Group in Eha Amufu, Nigeria. It was never actually used as a market due to conflict between the community organizers and the merchants over location. It was, however, used as a battle site during the Biafran War sometime between 1967 and 1970.
