Papua New Guinea Club ?

I looked at this club in detail when it came up on auction last week. Like Tim I originally actually thought that the club may be Sudanese, but the wooden spear and the bamboo and rattan barbed spear (not shown in this thread) that came with the lot indicated that it was indeed probably from Papua New Guinea.

The fact that they were bought together does not mean that they were collected at the same time or place. They could have come from a person's eclactic collection of junk.

True, true.

P.S. The rattan barbed spear is actually an arrow.
