The 300-item list was used in a survey of the Bozo language varieties spoken in the Inner Niger River Delta in Mali. As pointed out by the authors, it includes a 100-word list of Swadesh, which is most likely to be Swadesh 1971 100, with the exception of the personal pronouns, negation, determiners and the colors of green and yellow. The gloss voler is used in the list two times, referring to either the act of stealing or flying, but in both cases it is unclear which of these two sense is meant.
