Hi all, I was able "to steal" some pics at the most important ethnographic museum here in Italy the Museo Nazionale Preistorico ed Etnografico "Luigi Pigorini" in Rome. They have an excellent exposition on Africa (and also one on Oceania, one on the Meso and South America and one on the Prehistory of Italy) and a very big section dedicated to african arms and armours. So here you can see some very wonderful pieces. Enjoy

First Congo (here are only a very small example of the many spears, swords, daggers, knives, shields and more, that you will see if ever will go to the museum)
