African mask whose forehead is divided by a vertical ridge. This is a striking feature of statuary from the area between the Guro and the Bétés. The hairstyle is neatly represented by parallel streaks. This mask, whose function remains poorly documented, would symbolize masculine strength, and perhaps also a powerful notable named "migone". Glossy dark patina, desiccation crack. The Bété form a tribe established on the left bank of the Sassandra Riverin the south-west of the Ivory Coast. Close to the Kouya and the Niabwa, the making of their masks, as well as theirfunction, have great similarities. The Bété are divided into ninety-three ethnic groups and belong to the Krou group, like the Wé and the Dida. Practicing the cult of the bagnon, they wear masks provoking terror, called Gré, with a domed forehead and sometimes also a horned head, in order to protect themselves spirits. "Guro" ed. 5Continents
