As no. 110 [-> III E 3672b: An elongated bowl with a broad, almost flat base, slightly widening narrow rims and a rounded bowl and opening outline (type A). The narrow edges [are] gently sloping towards the outside. There are seven string slots on each side. The string cord is missing. The two bridges, originally inserted into the recessed edges, are also missing. Each with a small, round, narrow-edged perforation for attaching the string ends. The long edges and the underside of the bowl are coloured red, while the narrow edges are burnt black. On the long side, there is a flat hatched burnt pattern. The bottom of the bowl [has] numerous differently shaped perforations fired in a mirror-image arrangement]. An almost identical instrument! However, the stringing and the two branches used as bridges are completely preserved. Seven strings. One end of the string is tied to a small crosspiece that rests on the rim of the bowl above a small perforation in the side of the narrow rim; the other was clamped to the rim of the bowl under three string braces and hangs down from the instrument as a thick bundle of strings. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
