African Arrows... Lele?

Hi all and thanks for the help IDing my Yaka dagger. Now, I need help with some arrows, that I think may be Lele. They seem to match several descriptions of Lele arrowheads that I have found but without pictures it's hard to be sure. I've heard it said many times that the priority given to asthetics takes from the effectiveness of african arms. Not the case with these,the craftsmanship on these is stunning, and the blades are still razor sharp. The tiles in the background are a foot across for scale.
