"Dungh'bé", wooden mask which represents realistically the head of a cow, with natural horns, glass eyes, leather ears and mouth half open with tongue out. In the back, next to the piece of wood that forms the nape, is applied a bird, also sculpted in wood. On both sides, fringes of palm leaf. Used by young Bidjogo pre-initiatory age class "cabaro" in ritual performances.
