papua bone dagger ?
Hello everybody,
I saw this item and could not resist to buy it,
I think it is a papuan bone dagger with his scabbard.
Not too big , total length is 32cm / 12,6 inches
I read that there were/are often made with cassowary bone femur
/ human bone time ago...
I wonder about age, exact origin and kind of bone
( why not ''just'' wild pig femur per example ?? )
An old item ?
What do you think ?
Than you !
