Kifwebe
masks were made for the Bwadi ya Kifwebe association, a type of policing society
that provided a means of controlling social behavior and neutralizing disruptive
elements within the group. These masks appeared at the installation and death of
a chief, and at the initiation rites of young men as well as a whole range of
occasions that included punishments, warfare and public works. There is great
variety and symbolism within the various Kifwebe masks.
