I think it is African for sure. As Rick suggests the north of the continent. I have this one of very similar design. The difference is this one has a bamboo type halft. The blade has a midrib, there is also a wrap of metal at the other end. The rounded base of the blade has not been ground? as in your spear. I have reason to believe my spear is from N. Sudan and lands east to Somalia.
