This rare dignitary's headdress was carefully made in basketry, adorned with human hair and lined with braided raffia plaits. It is worn during enthronement ceremonies accompanied by traditional dances within the kingdom of Oku, in the northwest of Cameroon, in the Grasslands region at the border region of Nigeria. This chiefdom is populated mainly by two ethnic groups: nomadic pastoralists 'Fulani' and semi-Bantu farmers 'Nso, Oku and Kom'. The kingdom of Oku is renowned for the diversity of its religious production, its magical and therapeutic rites practiced by soothsayers and sorcerers.
