Congo Ivory Carvings in American Museum
The American Museum of Natural History has installed a rare Congo ivory carving collection in Morgan Hall of Gems. Curated from the Minebetu of Attica by Lag- Chap’s expedition, the pieces include images, fetishes, war trumpets, cups, boxes, and tools carved from elephant tusk. Found mainly in King Okendo’s domain, the works reveal native technique with adze outlines, polished surfaces, and pigment lines, reflecting ceremonial use and royal access restricted to the king’s circle.
