Tanzania

114 cm. high

Cf. Kollmann, P., "The Victoria Nyanza: The Land, the Races and their Customs, with Specimens of some of the Dialects", London, 1899, p.57, fig.69. The author writes: "I also received a piece of Karagwe-work in the shape of an eminently beautiful quiver, from Sultan Ruhiga in German Buddu. This is 3 1/2 feet long, made of black wood, and scratched with various triangular and linear ornamentations. It is shut above and below by two cup-shaped lids sewn over with skin."
