南部及中部非洲的面具与符号

依据这位前定居者的说法，这面面具在他的种植园中用于模仿式表演与娱乐，代表白人的灵魂。那么，这面具是不是欧洲人脸部的再现呢？在方族传统中，死者被认为会在白人之地转世，因此这是可能的。白人因此成为回访生者的祖先。此外，他们还具备超自然世界里叛离者灵魂的全部特征：他们邪恶，尽管人数不多，而且他们掌握各村的语言。已知最早的例子是单面Ngontang面具，如同这件，它们的确切用途仍不为人知。\n\n来源：私人收藏 几内亚\nArgiles 收藏，巴塞罗那

According to this former settler, this mask was used on his plantation in performances of parody and entertainment, and represented the spirit of the white man. Was the mask, then, a representation
of a European’s face? It is possible, insofar as Fang tradition holds that the deceased are reincarnated in the land of the Whites. The Whites are thus the ancestors who have returned to visit the living. They possess, moreover, all the characteristics of the defector spirits from the world of supernatural forces: they are wicked and evil, though few in number, and they learn the languages of the various villages. The oldest known examples are single-faced Ngontang masks, such as this one, and their precise use is unknown.
