Five different combs fibers braided decoration "Geometric motifs" Angolans - Tshokwe (related peoples) 20th C. (2nd half) faults and defects, patina wear four purchased in sanzala of Muata Sabumbo, in June 1965, another in Luacano in 1966 Dimensões (altura x comprimento x largura) - (o maior) 18 cm Notes: Provenance: Collection of Engineer Elísio Romariz dos Santos Silva, these combs correspond to items number 71, 72, 73, 74 and 89 mentioned in the notebook of the collector «Angola - Arte Negra, Relação e descrição das peças» and each one identified in it  as «Txissaculus». The collector mentions that items numbered 71, 72, 73 and 74 were purchased under the same conditions, so it is assumed that the three items were then purchased at sanzala of Muata Sabumbo(?), in June 1965. Item nº 89 is described in the notebook as a "Crosspiece decorated with incisions [...] Purchased at Luacano(?) in 1966 [...]. " Other combs are represented in SANTOS, Soraia Ferreira (coord.) - "Herança Secular dos Povos do Sul de Angola". Lubango: Museu Regional da Huíla, 2018, p. 135, nºs inv. 2004.R.70 e 2002.R.285.
