Kota / Gabon / wood, copper ? H 29 inches. / age: ca: 1970
The skulls and long bones of Kota ancestors were believed to retain power and are said to have control over the well-being of the family of the relics' keepers. Usually the relics were kept hidden away from the uninitiated and women. Wooden sculptures covered with sheets of copper and brass, known as reliquary or guardian figures, were attached to the baskets containing the bones.
