BAMILEKE, BUFFALO MASKS, Cameroon
Buffalos, large game animals with massive bodies, were associated with power, and buffalo masks, worn on the top of the head, were an important part of every ritual dance sequence. Their rank, however, was beneath that of the leopard and elephant.
Our Bamileke buffalo masks show no evidence of age or use and were probably made to be sold.
