As no. 98 [-> III E 1896: A wide bowl with strongly upwardly rounded narrow sides, the ends of which are pulled down under the boat-like curved bowl bottom. Ten strings (partly made of plant fibre). On each narrow side [are] ten diagonally drilled string guide perforations. One end of the string [is] looped into a knot below an outer perforation, the other is knotted to the neighbouring section of the string. There is a pair of perforations on each of the long sides. A longitudinally carved stem extension with an unoccupied hole. Along each of the rows of perforations [is] a group of notched lines]. However, slightly inwardly curved longitudinal walls and nine holes on each narrow side. Nine strings made of twisted plant fibre. An irregular string course. The corners of the bowl [are] less drawn down. There are four additional star-shaped perforations in the base of the bowl. A metal pin hammered into the process of the handle (probably originally hung with rattle discs). The flattened upper side of the handle extension [is] also carved. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
