Beschreibung : West Africa, Mali, Bamana peoples, ca. mid-20th century CE. A hand-made wood, cloth, and feather Sogo bo puppet of a hornbill bird known as Bala kono kun (Head of the River Bird), with a moveable jaw, used for teaching ceremonies.

Sogo bo is a major festival that takes place twice a year in Mali where the participants, dressed in garments made from vibrant African fabrics, don zoomorphic and human-shaped puppet masks and process through the streets in celebration - with an additional important purpose of reenacting myths and legends concerning the cosmos and their ancestors as well as new aspects of the contemporary world.
