至高无上的巴姆巴拉入会组织“Kòré”被视为知识的巅峰、行为的智慧，以及对上帝的真实认知。在这一入会理解层面上，亵渎和讥刺具有精神上的净化价值。戴面具者是真正的神圣小丑。为了行使他的“祭司职权”，Kòré Duga戴着Kòré Suruku面具，该面具代表一个神话鬣狗的头部，其特征被夸张得十分显著：额头极度隆起、两耳高直且尖锐、鼻梁极长且高、眼睛巨大、嘴部张开。这些面具的不同部分分别象征着：Kòré Duga的超自然智慧、他时刻保持的警觉、他的生命力、对事物的准确洞察，以及他在知识获取领域的典型贪欲，以及他语言的丰富。面具在额头的正中间有一个长茎支撑着一尊精致的女性雕像，其高度超过耳朵的高度。耳朵、刻痕和眼睛内部还留有蓝色的痕迹。来源：N Gom Codov，巴黎

The supreme and ultimate Bambara initiation society, the Kòré is considered the pinnacle of knowledge, the intelligence of deeds, and true knowledge of God. At this level of initiatory understanding, blasphemy and satire have spiritual cathartic value. The wearer of the mask is a true sacred jester. To exercise his “priesthood,” the Kòré Duga wears the Kòré Suruku mask, which represents the head of a mythical hyena whose features are grossly exaggerated: an exaggeratedly bulging forehead, large straight and pointed ears, a very long and high nose, large eyes, and an open mouth. These different parts of the mask symbolize, respectively, the supernatural intelligence of the Kòré Duga, his constant vigilance, his vitality, his accurate vision of things, and finally his proverbial gluttony in the domain of knowledge acquisition, as well as the abundance of his speech. The mask has small vertical slits (scarifications) across the entire width of the forehead and below the eyes, and three long slits along each side, from the base of the ears to the mouth. In the center of the forehead, on a long stem, there is a delicately sculpted figure of a woman, with a height that exceeds that of the ears. There are traces of blue coloring inside the ears, the scarifications and the eyes.
