Here is your second quiz. I think I have found an ID for this one but let’s see what you guys think. Feel free to ask clarifying questions. This example is about 29” long.

Nice club. I go for South America (Brazil ?) as well; the domed top and right-angled circular protusions near the butt are indicators.

Thanks for the feedback so far. We have a consensus that is definitely leading us in a particular direction. Will post the reference I found on this piece as soon as I can relocate it.

So I have looked and looked and can’t find the reference. I do recall seeing an identical club in a museum database and they referenced a particular tribe in Ecuador. The club very much resembles Brazilian clubs but doesn’t have the typical patterned wrap like the Kayapo clubs but it does have the similar dome shaped top. The work at the bottom of the grip is similar to but different than the Brazilian examples. Also, this one is a reddish wood and most of the Brazilian examples of this form I have seen are brownish. Unsure if Ecuador is right but hopefully that museum example will turn up for me one day.
