Dogon Iron Neckrest Tamberma, Bronze – Mali
$300.00
This iron forged neckrest originates from the Dogon Tellem people in Mali. Headrests such as this were used as burial gifts or quite possibly the headrests used by the deceased was buried with the deceased as it is done in some other parts of Africa. The Dogon, who do not now use headrests, attribute them to the Tellem, former inhabitants of the region from the 11th to the 16th centuries. Buria caves contained many objects that were offered as gifts for the dead : bowls, potteries, necklaces, bracelets, rings, and iron staffs. Headrests may have been objects of high status, because only a few caves contained them.
Made of 100% Iron.
