Notas : This highly expressionistic mask belongs to a group of Bangwa masks called Challenge masks, worn by members of the head-hunters society during dance ceremonies. The headdress is worn on the top of the head. See Brain and Pollock (1971:33) for a simlar example in situ. Both display a characteristic Bangwa style of dramatic form, apparently refering to the physical prowess of the dancer or victim.
