A Superb Old New Guinea War Club from Orokolo Bay Papuan Gulf South Coast Papua New Guinea 19th Century

A Superb Old New Guinea War Club from Orokolo Bay Papuan Gulf South Coast Papua New Guinea 19th Century

This superb old War Club called Boti in the Elema Language was used in warfare fighting with traditional enemies, the front is finely carved with two expressive Imunu Spirit Faces, a star shape, and other designs. The designs have magical properties that make the club more effective against enemies.

The Elema people live on the long coast of Orokolo Bay in southern Papua New Guinea. In the past, the primary focus of religious and artistic life was on powerful spirits (imunu). Each imunu typically was associated with a specific location in the landscape, rivers, or sea, and was linked to the specific clan within whose territory it dwelt.

In pre-European contact times, the Papuan Gulf people made huge Ceremonial Houses with peaked roofs called Ravi, this is where the Gope Spirit Boards and other types of ceremonial objects like Clubs and Bullroarers were kept safe.

Ceremonial Artworks & artifacts were kept on shrines that had boars’ skulls and human skulls from headhunting placed around them on racks, oral traditions were attached to all of the Ceremonial Artworks like this club would have had a significant oral history about the original owner & how it was used in fighting.

I love Papuan Gulf Art, I think it is one of the most beautiful art styles in the whole Island of New Guinea, please look at my other Papuan Gulf Artworks on my website, there are fine old Gope Spirit Boards, Ancestor Figures, Old Papuan Gulf Drums, incised Bark Belts, Shell Ornaments. Look at this superb old Elema Bullroarer from the same early collection : https://www.oceanicartsaustralia.com/art-for-sale/a-superb-old-bullroarer-orokolo-bay-papuan-gulf-area-papua-new-guinea/

The Papuan Gulf people had complex Hevehe Ceremonial cycles that took a decade to complete. There are many distinct art styles in the Papuan Gulf stretching from the Elema area in the east to the Bamu area in the west and they are also neighbors of the Gogodala & Marind Anim people who live on both sides of the border that splits the island between Papua New Guinea and West Papua Indonesia.

The Elema People or Orokolo Bay produced some of the strongest artworks in the whole Papuan Gulf Area & are the rarest as they were the first converted to Christianity.

Provenance: This Bullroarer was collected by the Australian Colonial Patrol Officer in 1948 when he was charged with visiting remote villages & keeping order.

A Fine Old New Guinea Shield Asmat People West Papua Irian Jaya Indonesia

A Fine Old New Guinea Shield from the Asmat People West Papua Irian Jaya Indonesia Home Page Link https://www.oceanicartsaustralia.com/

This beautiful old and well-used shield was collected by me in Djakapis in 1985. At that time Djakapis village was one of the most remote villages in the North West Asmat Area.

Asmat Shields were important objects that venerated their ancestors, each shield had a personal name and when invoked during warfare the enemy was said to be frightened or stunned and easy to kill. The physical protection of Shields is only one aspect of their use, shields in New Guinea also play an important ceremonial role & often are the vessel for ancestral spirits and often have a personal name that can be invoked to overpower an enemy. Shields are kept in Men’s ceremonial houses along with ancestral relics, old shields are family heirlooms and often have an oral history to them, the owner & their clans’ men often can tell you about every particular arrow or spear embedded in the face of the shield, they know the stories of each battle who might have been wounded or killed & how their shield with its ancestral power frightened or stunned their enemies so that they could be easily overcome.

The shield’s owner in the field photograph has his name recorded along with the name of the carver of the shield. Also at this time, there was still sporadic tribal fighting with Irogo and Pupis villages generally over the kidnapping of women which is their only way to increase their genetic pool in small village populations. Djakapis is a small village of less than 50 people.

I spent a lot of time in the Asmat region in the early 1980s and old and used Shields of this quality in the Coastal and Northwest Asmat Areas were rare. Many of the artworks I field collected then are now in major museum collections around the world including The Musee du Quai Branly Museum in Paris, when you walk into the Oceanic Art Pavilion at The Musee du Quai Branly the first thing you see is the monumental ancestor poles from the Asmat & Mimika along with Dance Costumes Shields and large Soul Canoe, all of these were field collected by me. Originally they were in an exhibition ” Asmat et Mimika at The National Museum of African and Oceanic Art in 1996 (now that museum is part of The Musee du Quai Branly). The exhibition the Asmat and Mimika in 1996 was published in the prestigious Louvre Museum Magazine see the link below and a photo of the exhibition above.

A Superb Old New Guinea Korwar Canoe Ornament Geelvink Bay West Papua Irian Jaya Indonesia.

A Superb Old New Guinea Korwar Canoe Ornament Geelvink Bay West Papua Irian Jaya Indonesia. Dating from the late 19th to very early 20th century

See all of my GALLERIES HERE https://www.oceanicartsaustralia.com/fine-tribal-art/

SEE CANOE PROWS GALLERY HERE https://www.oceanicartsaustralia.com/fine-tribal-art/new-guinea-tribal-art-oceanic-art/canoe-ornaments/

This finely carved old Canoe Prow Ornament is from the Geelvink Bay area on the North Coast of West Papua, Indonesia. It was placed at the very front of the canoe. When I field collected this canoe ornament 39 years ago it was being kept by a family as an heirloom carving from their Great Grandfather, these heirloom carvings were kept by families and used as wedding dowries as an important cultural artwork. This Canoe Ornament in the field photo is the same ( see attached photo)

They said it was off a large type of ocean-going war canoe that is no longer made due to the use of aluminum boats that don’t take months for a community to build as was done with dugout tree canoes made in earlier generations. This is the finest and largest Geelvink Bay Canoe Ornament I collected in the 6 months of traveling in this area, I stayed with many families who treated me with great kindness & hospitality.

The fine open-work carving shows the great skill of the carver & at the top are two large Korwar Ancestor Heads, one with remnants of cassowary feathers that were to depict hair. This Northwest part of the island of New Guinea had plenty of trade links with SE Asia, especially with the Moluccu Islands in Eastern Indonesia where many shared designs have come from.

It comes on a custom steel display stand that makes it look like it’s floating.

A Superb Old New Guinea Canoe Prow Ornament Asmat People West Papua Irian Jaya Indonesia

This fine old Asmat Sculpture was once on the front of a large war canoe that could hold about 20 to 25 warriors standing up and paddling. Finely carved by an Asmat Master Carver or Wow Ipitsj in the form of two rows of seated Asmat Ancestors. When on the canoe the orientation would be horizontal but as a sculpture, I like this way. The Ancestor Figures depicted look like a group of people sitting in a canoe. The canoe & canoe prow ornament were often carved from a single large tree and the other rare type of Canoe Prow like this example was tied to the front of the canoe.

The Asmat relation to trees is part of their creation mythology where the creator Fumeripitsj was lonely so he carved the first Asmat people from a tree & brought them to life by playing his drum.

The Asmat people and their art became well known when Michael Clark Rockefeller who was collecting Asmat Art was presumed dead there in November 1961. The artworks he collected are still beautifully displayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York

This Canoe Prow along with other artworks was collected by Todd Barlin over 2 years from 1985-1986, most of these artworks are now in major museum collections around the world including The Musee du Quai Branly Museum in Paris. When you walk into the Oceanic Art Pavilion the first thing you see are monumental Ancestor Poles from the Asmat & Mimika along with a Soul Boat, Shields, and Dance Costumes from the Asmat & Mimika, all of those artworks were collected at the same time as this Canoe Prow.

A Fine Old Solomon Islands Carved Shark Man Figure Star Harbour Area Makira Island Collected c.1960s

A Fine Old Solomon Islands Carved Shark Man Figure Star Harbour Area Makira Island in the SE Solomon Islands Collected c.1960s

See all of my Galleries & Sub Galleries here: https://www.oceanicartsaustralia.com/fine-tribal-art/

This finely carved figure of the Shark Man Deity is named Karemanua. Carved from a single piece of hardwood, the figure looks animated, like he swimming fast through the water. The shell inlay is typical to most of the ceremonial objects in this area of Star Harbour & the neighboring small Islands of Santa Anna Owa Raha & Santa Catalina Owa riki

I spent several months visiting the villages in this area and in 1985 these were very traditional, especially Santa Catalina Owa riki which still had many traditional artists making fine ceremonial artworks. I personally love Solomon Islands Art and have been collecting artworks from the Solomon Islands for 40 years. I have quite several superb antique Solomon Islands Artworks that you can see in my collection.

In the eastern Solomon Islands, the shark occupies a privileged position. Held in high esteem and revered as both guardian and predator, sharks are closely associated with the spirit world and, more particularly, with the transition of man from the world of the living to the world of the departed which is inhabited by ancestors. This allusion to the shark is partly based on an important myth which recounts the story of Karemanua, a man who metamorphosed into a shark. Karemanua is said to have bitten the body of his brother, Kakafu, for having witnessed his transformation into a powerful god and his subsequent passage from the living world to the realm of spirits and ancestors which was tapu (sacred or taboo, forbidden).

A Superb Old Micronesian Woven Basketry Fish Trap Yap Island Micronesia

A Superb Old Micronesian Woven Basketry Fish Trap Yap Island Micronesia

This beautiful old Fish Trap constructed from bamboo and coconut fibre coir rope was made with great skill like a complex architectural model based on mathematical engineering.

The Federated States of Micronesia is comprised of four states, Chuuk, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Yap. Each state has its own unique traditional fishing practices. Across these islands, many different forms of traditional fishing knowledge were shared and fishermen ventured into the waters, relying on their ancestral knowledge to catch a diverse array of marine life.

The fishing basket trap is an apparatus used to trap fish with a funnel-like entrance that allows fish easy passage to get inside but difficult to get out. It is usually made from bamboo and other materials like rattan, the fishing basket trap is an ancient way to catch fish probably used by human beings for many thousands of years. People around the world have the custom of using fishing basket traps that come in various shapes & technology specific to the type of fish being sought.

When fishing in a lagoon with calm water, you can sink the fishing basket trap with a float connected to show the location. The back part of the basket is always an enclosure where a piece of bait is provided. Catching fish with a fishing basket trap is a sustainable way to food resources. It was a reliable method to get food for humans for thousands of years. The techniques of weaving and making use of the fishing basket were indispensable knowledge for the people of that time. This sustainable practice not only maintains local livelihoods but also preserves the fragile marine ecosystems that are vital to the nation’s well-being.

The Pacific Ocean plays a central role in the lives of Micronesians, not only is it used for fishing, inter-island travel, and, formerly, warfare, but it also serves as a conduit for trade networks and political alliances. Micronesian artworks directly associated with the ocean include Basketry Fish Traps like this example and the important Stick Navigation Charts and Weather Charms from Yap Island both of which were associated with long ocean voyages.

Yalulawei, benevolent water spirits were summoned by the navigator or fisherman through chanting to ensure a smooth and safe voyage during fishing.

A Fine Collection of Antique African Passport Masks Dan People Ivory Coast West Africa

A Fine Collection of Antique African Passport Masks Dan People Ivory Coast West Africa dating from the 19th to early 20th Century

Most Dan face masks genre, and those of the culturally related groups of Côte d’Ivoire and Liberia, are commonly executed in a miniature form, ranging in height between 6 and 20 centimetres.

Even the largest miniatures are too small to be worn in front of the face, and they rarely exhibit any means by which they may be attached to anything. The most common mask type represented in such a diminutive form is deangle (attractive mask with slit eyes, performs a feminine behaviour)

Miniature masks bear many names: the most common is ma go (small head), but depending on scholarship it has also be named gba po (thing which is fed), or nyonkula (substitute for the ancestors). Echoing the variety of names, they fulfill a variety of functions. Anyone who has a spiritual connection with a mask, or whose family owns an important mask, is entitled to commission a miniature. Rubbed with oil and food, they are wrapped up and kept on the owner’s body or among his possessions and function as portable and personal forms that share the power and protective force of the full-sized mask.

Miniature masks are carved to embody tutelary spirits and serve as testimony to the presence of the spirit associated with a large masquerade. When a mask-owner is travelling, the miniature mask serves as an important means of identification outside his immediate community. This role that may have given it the commonly applied name of “passport mask.”

Diviners can advise individuals to commission a miniature mask for preventative, protective, or curative purposes.

In addition to being the property of one single individual, in certain instances, miniature masks may also play a communal role in secret societies. They are among the sacred objects displayed at men’s society meetings to protect the men collectively and can be shown to new initiates. On these occasions, they are interpreted to be representations of the benevolent spirits associated with the most important masquerades of the area. They are used as sacred objects for taking oaths and for swearing to tell the truth.

Whether personal or collective, miniature masks must be fed regularly to remain strong and able to help their owner. Food may be simply set before it, or the offering, such as rice or oil, may be rubbed or poured onto it. On special occasions, a sacrificed chicken’s blood is spilled onto the mask. The range of offerings and use explain the variety observed in the miniature’s patinas.

A Pair of Fine Old Australian Aboriginal Spears from Arnhem Land Northern Territory Australia

A Pair of Fine Old Australian Aboriginal Spears from Arnhem Land Northern Territory Australia. Dating from the late 19th – Early 20th Century

This pair of old Arnhem Land Spears shows the great skill of the artist who made them. The Stone Spear Heads are expertly flaked to get very sharp edges & points. They were then hafted on wood shafts bound with fiber string & resin to hold them strongly, after the spears were functionally strong the artist took the time to ochre paint the area just below the stone tips. These two spears were likely cut down from their original 2 to 3-meter length, this was often done when collected in a remote area and then needed to transport them back to their new home.

Spears are traditionally used for hunting and fishing, and as a weapon to administer tribal law, self-defense, or acts of aggression. Spears would have been used with Woomera Spear Throwers to make them fly further & with great accuracy to hit running animals like Kangaroo

While many spears had wooden tips, those across northern Australia, like these examples were made with fine blades of silcrete and quartzite. These were associated with magical qualities, which were believed to improve accuracy for the operator.

Long stone blades with sharp edges, known by archaeologists as “Leilira blades “. The term ‘Leilira blade’ refers to very long flaked blades made in central and northern Australia that are triangular or trapezoidal in cross-section. They are made by ‘flaking’ – removing a small piece of rock from a large piece, called a core, by striking it with a hammerstone. The core is usually held in the hand or rested in the person’s lap or on the ground. Often one or both edges of the blade are retouched to create a dentated or notched edge or a rounded end.

Leilira blades are usually made from quartzite, a hard metamorphic rock that varies in colour from white to dark grey, but slate and other stones are also used.

Leilira blades are up to 20 cm long and were used to butcher animals, to create cicatrice (raised) scars on people and in male circumcision. They were also used as spearheads in the Northern Territory, central Australia and western Queensland,

A Fine Old Pair of Australian Aboriginal Mokoy Figures from Central Arnhem Land Northern Territory of Australia. Dating from the 1960s

These rare old figures commemorate a Birrkili ceremony. Finely carved and ochre painted; the black triangles symbolize thunder, red is the rain, and white is the lightning and also includes an image of a totemic turtle, a creature that plays a major role in Mokoy ceremonies. The people of Arnhem Land are world-famous for their ancient Rock Art and Bark Paintings and Sculpture

Yolŋu are Aboriginal people from northeast and central Arnhem Land, Northern Territory. The Yolŋu worldview sees every species of plant, animal, fish bird, or any place or person as belonging to one of the two balancing halves of the world, the clans making up the two moieties that define all Yolŋu relationships to people and country – Yirritja and Dhuwa. The sacred art of this region, known as Miwatj, details the spiritual forces behind the ongoing Creation and the continuing identity of the fresh and saltwater country of the area.

A Superb Old Australian Aboriginal Woomera Spear Thrower West Australia 19th C

A Superb Old Australian Aboriginal Woomera Spear Thrower from Western Australia Dating from the Late 19^thto Early 20th Century.

The Woomera or Spear Thrower is a sophisticated technology that elongates the arm making the spear travel much further in distance & with great accuracy when used for hunting. Correcting for the game animal’s lateral dodging is accomplished by tilting the wing-shape woomera during the throw for last-second corrections. The kinetic energy of a spear launched from a woomera has been calculated as four times that of an arrow launched from a compound bow. See the photo above of Woomera in use

This beautiful old Woomera or Spear Thrower is finely carved from a single piece of hardwood, it is finely incised on the front surface with linear fluting and the Zig Zag design that represents an abstract snake highlighted with white ochre painting. At the back of the Woomera, you can see the great skill of the artist and their use of traditional bone or stone tools giving it a distinct chiseled surface. The slender handle butt would have once had a small ball of spinifex resin.
