Thank you both
Would you have any idea as to possible age but I realise there is nothing to go on.
Also are these clubs also called Knobkerries
Regards

The Swahili word for this type of club is rungu, it is most famously used by the Masai but also by other people groups of Eastern Africa

Hi Ken, yes they are also called knobkerries, a term that seems to date from the early 19th C among English reports.
