Description
India, 19th-early 20th century AD. Cast bronze figure depicting the upper part of a tribal god with armlets, horned headdress and necklace of four severed heads. 940 grams, 15cm (6"). From an old London collection, formed in the 1980s. The Naga tribe are a group of peoples inhabiting the North East of India and North Western Burma. The horned headdress of this figure and the necklace of severed heads is the same as that worn by warriors and therefore is possibly a deity associated with warfare. [No Reserve]
