Punu MaskThis unusual Punu mask of lightweight, light coloured wood displays a black dyed, finely lined hairstyle with a high central crest as well as with two short plaits at the side. Also dyed black are the slit eyes that seem so Japanese. Scarification marks are present on both cheeks and forehead. Quite unusual is the long column like neck.
