mitsogo information request of availability

A Mitsogo Gabon Manioc stamper from the Horst Ufer collection Coming from the Mountains of central Gabon, this manioc stamper is from the Mitsogo Tribe (northwestern Bantu)

Most Mitsogo carvings found in museum collections today are wooden reliquary figures that were used to protect the spirits of deceased ancetors. Not so many daily objects from the Mitsogo are available for collector.

This object has a nice aging patina, and the Kaolin is strongly incrusted on the face o this finelly carved stamper.

Oral histories of the Mitsogo indicate that their ancestors immigrated from an area in northeastern Gabon around the Ivindo River valley during the 13th and 14th centuries. Art styles and techniques link the Mitsogo to other peoples in their region. Like the Fang and Kota peoples who live to the north and the Punu who live to the south, the Mitsogo carve figures whose primary purpose is to guard the relics of ancestors. They also practice bwiti, which is an observed practice of various other peoples throughout Gabon.

Mitsogo religion centered around ancestors who were believed to wield power in the afterlife as they had as living leaders of the community.
