DESCRIPTION/EXPERTISE
Such masks represent spirits of mythical ancestors. Characteristically, they occurred in pairs embodying mythical brothers and sisters: always the elder and the younger. Each pair belonged to a specific clan and was stored in the house of the clan elder.” (Kocher Schmid in Greub, 1985: 183, caption fig. 28)
