African Big Bongo Peoples Stone Female Figure
Located in South Burlington, VT
Africa, Bongo Peoples, stone female commemorative figure from Southern Sudan. A fine specimen in naturally weathered condition; hand carved from a porous orange-black stone, 20th century. Similar funerary stone sculptures in various sizes were likely crafted over many centuries.
Original patina from appropriate age.
Custom base included.
Dimensions: 30 inches high and 9.5 inches wide and 8 inches deep mounted on a custom iron base.
Provenance: Old Brussels, Belgium collection acquired in 1998.
History:
The Bongo are an ethnic group living in South Sudan, mostly in the Tonj District. They speak the Bongo language, one of the Bongo-Baka languages. Unlike the Dinka and other Nilotic groups, the Bongo are not a cattle herding people and do not use cows for bride price. Subsistence farming is the primary source of food, though money is obtained by working in forestry, building, selling honey, and other various means.
