Descrizione : Central Africa, Kenya, Turkana, ca. early 20th century CE. A beautiful example of a hand-carved wooden war club created by the Turkana peoples, of a characteristic shape that somewhat resembles a rib, with a fanned head that angles toward one side and rises from a long tubular handle. This type of weapon had the ability to deliver powerful blows, though its elegance will certainly add a bit of charm to any collection! Size: 41 L x 4.25 W (104.1 cm x 10.8 cm) The Turkana people are primarily semi-nomadic pastoralists and refer to themselves as iTurkana, meaning The Turkana or the people of Turkan. The Turkana are known for weaving beautiful baskets as well as raising camels. They have a rich oral tradition, and refer to themselves as the people of the gray bull, more specifically after the Zebu. The domestication of the Zebu played a significant role in their history.
