Description from the seller
DRコングのバコンゴ族の力強い Nkisi Kozo。
The Nkisi Kozo plays an important role in the Bakongo world of experience: this Nkisi statue is the connection between the worlds of the living and the dead.
These Nkisi statues are always provided with dog’s heads because dogs are seen as the ultimate witch hunters.
Kozo statues are always richly provided with nails, metal blades, bones and other attributes which were applied by the Nganga (medicine man, fortune teller) to sanction requests or promises from tribe members.
This specimen is in a good condition.
Provenance: former private German collection.
Tracking number will be provided. Signature upon delivery.
