    A very interesting antique carved ox bone Cameroonian
    seated Ancestral Power figure.
    Possibly Bafo.
    It has a smokey dark patina and the carving is high lighted
    with a dark pitch.
    The figure is holding in his right hand, his own Ancestral Power figure.
    Unusual piece.
    He stands 6 inches high and is very tactile.
    Weight 120 grams.
    Anyway, that is what my research has told me. If you know more please let me know?
    Pete
