This kind of spear was common in various parts of Ethiopia, it is possible to see them eg hanged on walls in restaurants etc as decoration in Addis and its surroundings, currently. Bamboo shaft could be original, even if the sleeve pieces of spearhead and shoe are slightly bigger - if it took fast hold, they did not mind it. This spear is also common in Bale mountains, including the bamboo shaft.
