Descrizione : This is an oversized item that may require special shipping. Please inquire for a quote before bidding. Central Africa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mangbetu peoples, ca. mid-20th century CE. A fine spear featuring a slender wooden handle with 7 petite metal ringlets as well as an iron blade head. The blade head is of a pointed form with 5 curved, downward facing barbs projecting from the sides, and beneath a raised, integral ringlet is a narrow socketing shaft. Barbed spears like this example were intended to not only injure the intended target but cause prolonged wounds since the directions of the barbs makes removing the spear head difficult.
