<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 4330851, member: 8267&quot;]It is helpful to know that the horns might have originally been upright. But I have not been able to find any examples that closely compare to your mask. My feeling, based on the general style, is that it may be from the region of interior West Africa (the conjunction of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Ivory Coast), where peoples such as the Bamana/Bambara, Senufo, Bobo and Bwa have traditions of animal masks. Such masks often combine features of different animals. In this case, it may be a combination of hyena and buffalo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
