Zande figure - DRC ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Item Details

Description

Title: Zande figure - DRC ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Date/Period: Second half XX°

Origin: DRC ex Zaire

Dimension: 11,42 Inch

Materials: wood

Weight: 1,32 Pounds

Item type: Statues, ancestors, reliquaries

Provenance: Formerly known as "Niam-Niam" because they were considered to be anthropophagous, the tribes grouped under the name of Zande, Azandé, settled from Chad on the border of the DRC (Zaire), Sudan and the Central African Republic. According to their beliefs, man is endowed with two souls, one of which transforms into the animal-totem of the clan to which he belongs upon his death. The name of their ethnic group means: "those who possess much land", an allusion to their warrior past originating in Sudan. The Yanda statuettes were displayed during divinatory sessions in which the chief of the society would coat them with paste and blow smoke on them. The Zande on the other hand used poison oracles in many circumstances, and had a secret language.

Additional Information: Stand not included. A universal or custom base can be ordered separately.
