Image 10 shows a nice spear head just a little out of focus.

A nice array.

Thanks Asomotif.
Here is another relatively new picture from that time southern Sudan. New picture .... - can we say it if it is already 43 years old ?
(Picture by natural scientist Josef Vágner)

Looks like he could be Dinka? The spear looks Dinka to me.

Yes, Vágner described the picture (book "Africa - Paradise and Hell of the Animals", 1970) as Dinka. I did not mention it before because I had certain doubts - I thought this forehead horizontal cicatrices were typical for Nuer people.
