Swazi 'gebu' war club c262
Measurements
War club from the Dokolwako area of Swaziland, under Chief Malamlela
Magagula. These one piece clubs were made from the "sinyeye" or
red ivory tree. This club style is a descendant of the sagila and lingedla
clubs - the heartwood indentations have been widened until the head is
completely flat on the top and bottom. In 18th century Scotland, this style
of war club was called a "three wood". (Someone was going to make that joke
no matter what, so I figured I'd say it first.)
