			Hello zalmoxis.  I do not really know anymore than yourself except it is not African.  I just find the similarity of the mother of pearl to this Samoan food bowl most stricking.  It would be very rare indeed if it had any relation to Samoa.  On the bowl the triangular pieces I believe represent bats.  I would agree that your pistol must come from that SE part of the world.  Very interesting, maybe there are some gun people around.  Tim
