A Nkisi Nkondi Power Figure Congo
A Nkisi Nkondi Power Figure Congo Carved wood figure with attached cow bone inserted metal sheaths mirrors glass and cloth on head. Empowering substances are enclosed inside the figure allowing the priest or subscriber to use it for ill-omens or for protective help from those who would harm. The figure shows an 'oath taking' gesture with one arm upraised. At one point the figure probably held a blade or baaka an ancient kind of knife used for extracting the milk of the palm wine tree in the upraised arm. The blade was believed to have the power to kill by supernatural means and analogously the word baaka as a verb meant not only to extract wine but to demolish or destroy (Thompson 1978: 216-217).
