This is a picture from the British Museums site of the drum donated in 1928 by Rev. F.R. Bishop from Sepik River PNG. It's the same drum but a different view from the one in the book I have. Next is a similar Chambri drum captured by the Iatmul people. The Chambri are from the Chambri Lakes region of East Sepik. Both drums were collected in the early 20th century. Hope this helps. aloha tikicoma |
