It seems to be of later Congo origin maybe Ngbandi or a neighboring tribe? Does not look older than the 1930. I would think the long spike end is meant as the business end the copper looks like a reinforces the shaft the smaller cone shaped spike may be used as an anchoring tool for ground placement? More pike like than spear to me.
