Thumbs up Panama Macana sword

Lucky, this stuff, nobody likes but me. So it is usually cheap except for shipping and customs taxes. You know I like the odd stuff. Get a few odd bits together and the madness starts to make sense. Not "antique" but not new either and the 20th century was 100 years long. The word MACANA is a general term. The indigenus peoples of Panama were influenced by both the north and the south. The Macana is a weapon but there are also ritual forms used by shaman. That is what I think I have here. It might not be a true weapon but it is certainly not a toy.
