Spear for ID

Can anybody ID this spear? Appears to be from Africa, but not sure from where.

Yet another "unknown" (African ?) spearhead.

Hi, You are right, both are from Africa and my opinion is that they are from Tanzania.

The second is probably Masai (or neighbouring tribes) but, unfortunately many similar examples seem to be for tourists, these tend to have very thin (in thickness) 'heads'.

Thanks for your reponses, Timo and David.
