Ron,
I also Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllly want to know more, also.
Martin,
Thanks for providing the fascinating site! Artifacts of breathtaking beauty,
Here is a direct link to a little bit of info about the dagger and spear. I have a similar picture of a spear that is pictured in Tirri's new African book, but I do not have permission to post the picture I have. I'll ask. It is not the same picture as in the book.
