Arrows
Skilfully designed and crafted so as to function efficiently under specific conditions and for specific types of prey, in Namibia arrows were also elegantly shaped and decorated so as to provide an aesthetic effect. Thus, they not only performed a specific function, but also expressed both the cosmology and the personality of their owners. Text: Sandra Ferracuti.

No more correspondence exists for this object. However, it is known that Hummel spent about six years in "German South-West Africa" between 1898 and 1905. So it is obvious that he acquired the objects himself in situ.
