Ceremonial axe; messenger staff; Recade
The object has a wooden handle that is carved on the pommel. In appearance, the object is reminiscent of an axe or a bird's head, whereby the axe blade is blunt and elaborately decorated with hallmarks, as is the spike. There are two brass rivets on the head. Received from the Museum für Völkerkunde Berlin, from the "Sendung der Kamerun-Expedition (Dr Zintgraff)". Described in the catalogue as an "Iron axe from Cameroon".
