The spearhead being a tang construction rather than a socket narrows the field somewhat, as most African spears were socket rather than tang constructions, the latter certainly being used on Zulu, Ngoni and Shona spears. I'm certainly no expert (I'm just repeating what I think I've read), but I believe that the way the shaft of the head "pinches" when it meets the blade is indicative of Zulu spears.
