It is hard to be exact on the origin but it looks to be central African which is rather a large area.

well, you will not easily fid exactly the same spear but I see many Ngbandi spears from Congo which bear many similar traits to your specimen. I am convinced yours is one of these

They are rather common in Belgium, for obvious reasons and are nearly impossible to dat, yours doesn't look very old
