Description (CMS Description)
Club used in dancing. Monoxyle and heavy. The entire surface of the head has been rubbed with lime (very faded now). The head of the club is canoe-shaped, tapering to a point and curving upwards. The head is decorated with geometrical motifs in red and black pigments on all sides. The side of the club is carved with four small lugs, pierced twice (one chipped), probably to receive tassels/pendants. The handle is thick and circular in section. The upper part is decorated with black motifs. The lower part is perforated and receives a cord of plaited plant fibre to which are attached pendants of hollow cane and seeds.
