Bow without string

Contact the institution

Tapered bow on both sides, wrapped with very thin wire at the ends. No inventory book entry could be clearly assigned to the object. The provenance is therefore unclear. Similar bow shapes can be found in African countries south of the Sahara. Whether the present bow is a weapon of African origin has not yet been established with certainty.
