Summary
DescriptionIziko Lydenburg Heads 1.JPG |
English: The Lydenburg heads are the earliest known examples of African sculpture in Southern Africa.
Two of the heads are large enough to have been worn as ceremonial helmet masks. The other five smaller heads have a hole on either side of the neck, by which they could have been attached to a pole or costume during a performance. One of the small heads has an animal-like nose and mouth, which would have been a symbolic importance to the makers of the heads. |
