I must admit the more I have looked at the angle of this pommel, the more I am thinking toward the Sama people. With the scabbard top done in this fashion and the ukkil used, I now am almost sure it is from the Sama. I say almost because usually I see pieces attributed to the Sama with slightly different ukkil where the tail starts.
Another possibility, Ron could this also be from Bun-Bun village?
