Descubra la tasación y los precios de esta y más obras de arte africano en Africartmarket. Taino Black Stone Petaloid Celt / Hand Axe, 1998



Descripción : Pre-Columbian, Dominican Republic, Taino or Ciboney peoples, ca. 1000 to 1500 CE. A gorgeous, hand-carved black stone petaloid hand axe (sometimes called a celt) that was made to be a ceremonial object - part of a ceremonial hatchet called a manaya. This blade would have been hafted onto a wooden handle (although there are limited examples where the blade and handle are all made from a single piece of stone). The Yoruba African people that the Spanish brought as slaves to the Caribbean found these stones in fields and linked them to the Yoruba deity Shango (sometimes Chango) because of their thunderbolt shape. Custom museum-quality display stand included. Size: 2.9 W x 9.9 H (7.4 cm x 25.1 cm), 10.125 H (25.7 cm) on included custom stand.
