Identification of Indian or African ivory object.

This is 10.5cm tall and has a lot of age. I assume the holes are for looping through string. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

African Dagger for ID

I have just purchased this dagger but I am unsure of it’s exact origin. I was woundering if someone could help me identify it. I think it’s sudanese.
