Bamboo and wood spear. The head is a long, thin section of bamboo, concave, dyed red on one side, ending in a sharp point. It is connected to narrow wooden shaft which has been dyed and narrowed slightly towards the join, which is inserted into a thicker bamboo shaft. Both joins are bound with rattan and beeswax. A number of thin lines have been scratched around the shaft at the butt. The bamboo’s nodules have been shaved smooth.
