Shield opinions please?

[Tim Simmons]

Putting on my armchair slouch hat and safari jacket. My invissible porters and I came across this shield which we aquired from a Dutch native vendor. It was being sold as an example from a large continent. I bought it thinking it was from somewhere else. I was hoping before it arrives and I show daylight pictures. It would be fun to gather views of the origin on the anthropomorphic imagery only. it is not large 59cm high so there is a good chance that it is a dance shield though not certain.
