Would appreciate your opinion
Evening all ! I m a new member, and started collecting ethnographic weapons recently. I ve include a few pics a was wondering about your opinion about these. Thanks in advance !!!
Pics include: 3 cassowary bone daggers New-Guinea 1 cassowary bone dagger New-Guinea 1 small bone dagger (pig - cassowary?) New-Guinea (23 cm) Tribal club origin unknown - flat head- 37 cm Tribal club origin unknown - with a ridge on top - 34 cm ould love to know the origin of the 2 above.... Knoberrie style club 50 cm Masai club 64 cm This one is certainly not old, as I brought it back from Kenya 16 years ago; It is however an genuinely tribally used piece. Bontoc Igorot headhunters axe. Weight 550 grams, with an irregular blade thickness, obviously not made out of sjeet metal, but forged metal. |
