Item Details

Description

Türschloss, "konbalabala"
Bamana, Mali
Ohne Sockel / without base
Holz, Eisen (Stift). H 38,5 cm. B 39 cm.

Provenienz:
Helmut und Marianne Zimmer, Zürich.

Schloss einer Bamana-Tür. Riegel und Schloss werden als Symbol des Zeugungsakts verstanden und mit dem Schöpfungsgeschehen der Urzeit assoziiert.

Der älteste bekannte Schloss-Mechanismus der Menschheitsgeschichte ist das Fallriegelschloss. Schon im alten Ägypten wurden solche Schlösser verbreitet angewandt. Im oberen inneren Bereich des Kastens befinden sich mehrere Metallstifte, die durch ihr Eigengewicht in dafür vorgesehene Löcher des Riegels (fehlend) fallen und diesen blockieren. Der dazugehörige Schlüssel hat Zinken, die die einzelnen Stifte anheben können, damit der Riegel wieder verschoben werden kann. Weil weder die Anzahl Stifte noch deren Anordnung in geschlossenem Zustand von vorne erkennbar sind, ist ein spurloses Öffnen ohne den passenden Schlüssel unmöglich und der Besitzer bemerkt einen ungewollten Zugriff sofort.
