Thank you Robert. Two weeks ago I have seen this and the two other swords as well a Boa sword listed by an auction house here in Germany. The minimum bid by all this swords I have given online and yesterday I was really surprised that I have won all four swords by this minimum bids. By my very limited knowlegde about Congo weapons I think that this bango is a very very good catch, special by the price I have paid.

Regards,

Detlef

I think that it is a Ngombe jemongo like shown from Luc in my other thread in post #10: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=17387
Very similar but from a other tribe.

Regards,

Detlef
