南部及中部非洲的面具與符號

这面面具无疑是由入教仪式场地的守护者佩戴的。

一个异常巨大、白色脸庞的面具，呈细长的椭圆形，宽阔的额头几乎被发型尖端入口与巨大的三角形、示意性的鼻尖所分成两半；
眼睛被一条细长的窄缝分成两半，上部镶蓝，下部镶红，一直到内侧，嵌在框住它们的眼窝中，底部每只眼睛有三条竖向裂缝（如北部苏库人的亨巴面具所示）；
它有一种矩形突出型的嘴唇，纵向裂缝贯穿其全宽，涂成蓝色；
它有下巴缺失；耳朵呈简化的C形。
它头顶为覆以柏油布料的球形头部，涂成黑色并带有红色十字条纹。
由植物纤维制成的宽大项圈自冠部延至口部下方，环绕面部。
从眼睛到口部的下部轮廓有一条红线。
卢拉艺术家使用白、蓝、红三色颜料来强调面具的形状与表面效果。

This mask was surely worn by the guardian of the initiation ground. An extraordinary
large mask with a white face, elongated oval shape with a broad forehead divided almost in two by the
pointed entrance of the hair scheme and the tip of the enormous triangular and schematic nose; eyes
cut in half by a thin, elongated slit, the upper part of which is edged
in blue and the lower part in red, running all the way to the inside, located within sockets that frame them
and have, at the bottom, three vertical slits per eye (as in the Hemba masks of the
northern Suku); it has a kind of rectangular protruding mouth with vertical slits painted
blue across its entire width; it has no chin; schematic C-shaped ears. It is topped
by a spherical head made of tarred fabric painted black with red cross stripes.
The wide collar of plant fibres frames the face from the crown to below the mouth. The lower part
of the face from the eyes to the mouth is edged with a red line. Lula artists
use white, blue and red pigments to accentuate the shapes and surfaces of their masks.
