Default Two warriors/hunters from the southern part of Ethiopia

The shield used to be attributed to Oromo people (which is a little bit rough allocation - there were many Oromo clans using different shields)

Default Shields from Sidamo, Ethiopia

The picture with a group of people is from Bära village in Sidama, 1954-1955

Both pictures are from the book by Pascal Joannes "Private Collection of Ethiopian Art - Tribute to Tekalegn Besega"

(Teka was one of Ethiopian collectors, he, unfortunately, died a few years ago)
