Hello All Help Please

[Roland_M]

Hello,

I think, all the items are from Africa. I see two shields and two spears.

Here is a link to one of the shields, which i identify as a shield: http://www.flight-toys.com/artifacts/tb01.html and another one with african items: https://www.flickr.com/photos/41048903@N03/page1 (Page 3)

The items seems to be old, but it is hard to judge, because africans are very skillful specialists in artificially aging.


Kind regards Roland

Hello, your spears looks like Danakil/Somali from horn of Africa.
I think the pictures are so small to see it well, so about the age - difficult to tell.

I am going to attempt to put some larger pictures of the spears in this message. The shields are actually just one shield. I took pictures of both sides of it but I see it is in a couple of pictures. But it is only one shield.

Thank you for additional pictures, the spears are not very old I think it maybe 50 years, or maybe even less. Regards.

I know they are not fakes. My great grandfather and grandfather traveled all over the world during their years in the military and have passed down to me, collectibles from years dated as early as the 1800's. All have been identified as authentic. No fakes in any of the items all originals.
I really appreciate the help with these items. If you come across anyone who may know more, please direct them my way. I cant tell you how much I appreciate your help and your knowledge.
