This is a wonderful old Giriama Wooden Memorial Funerary Post from Kenya. The Giriama people of the Kenyan coast are known for their long-standing tradition of carved wooden mortuary posts. The grave posts, called kikangu, serve a number of functions within Giriama life. Most grave posts are carved of nzizi wood, an extremely hard wood that is also resistant to insect deterioration. A fabulous addition to your collection or home.
