Shield. Melanesia, Papua-New Guinea, Sepik Region, Lake Chambri, Villa of Palimbei, Itamul people, early 20th CE. It is possible that this shield comes from hoard of war spoils or from an exchange with neighbouring groupes (Sawos);  peoples living along the banks of the river - like the Iatmuls - did not use shields. Wood, pigment, 152.7 x 46 x 4 cm. Inv. 71.1961.103.313. Photo: Patrick Gries / Bruno Descoings.
