A VERY NICE EXAMPLE WITH ALL THE TRIBAL DECORATIONS STILL INTACT AND IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. LIKELY MADE FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS OR CEREMONIES OR FOR A SYMBOL TO BE CARRIED BY SOMEONE OF IMPORTANCE OR BEING HONORED BY THE TRIBE. DID THEY HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON WHICH COUNTRY OR TRIBE? THANKS FOR POSTING

I have this information on this spear taken from " AMAZONIEN Indianer der Regenwalder und Savannen, Museums der Volkerkunde Dresden 2009 " The spear illustrated was collected from the Mundurucu. It is listed as ceremonial spear 1970. I think you have a nice thing. If kept well feathers can last centuries.

From a little research it seems that RIKBAKTSÁ is more of a culture language region rather than a specific people. Rather like the different but related peoples of the EU that speak French. This map from Wikipedia of the RIKBAKTSÁ "tribe" is in the same vicinity as the German publication so they are both correct.

This is my latest amazon club. From the Krikati of Maranhao state Brazil. The same state as the Ka'apor club last post. When I have it I will show more details and comparison with others.
