Item Details
Description
wood, partly encrusted brown patina, of typical form with big open snout, flat, board-shaped "hook nose", ornamental incisions, ears with several drilled holes, min. dam., small missing parts, traces of abrasion, base;
the masks are regarded as bearers of energy, and already during their making they receive blood sacrifices. During the performance the dancers take a crooked posture, leaning on short sticks, which optical lengthens their arms and imitates the bearing of a hyaena. The meaning of the hyaena mask differs according to the respective context of its appearance. Within the scope of the "koré" celebration the hyaena in most cases symbolizes the effort of the initiates to perfect their secret knowledge.
