Judging from the appearance of the masks, kifwebe, depicted on the handle and scabbard, I would say Songye rather than Luba. It is often difficult to attribute an object to a people, especially when use and design are so close. Interesting piece.
Best regards Marc |

Yes, very similar to Songye. You're right, Hemba and Songye's ancestors migrated from the Luba Empire, so they have a lot in common. On the Hemba people, I found information on the Kabeja cult. There are figurines for Songye Janus Two Faced, but I have not found a description of the cult. Regards, Yuri |

Thanks to Mark's help, I am amending the identification of the sword.
The sword clearly belongs to the culture of the Songye people. |
