This sword with its scabbard is a ceremonial weapon from the kingdom of Bamum. At the beginning of the 20th century, Bamum was the largest and most powerful principality in the grasslands of Cameroon. Such ceremonial weapons served as a sign of the owner's wealth and position and were not made for fighting. In 1908, King Njoya of Bamum (reigned approx. 1887 - 1933) presented the sword and scabbard to the German colonial governor Theodor Seitz (*1863 - †1949) as a birthday present for Emperor Wilhem II.
