A old and well-used protective belt, made of small amulettes, encased in leather pouches. Inside these pouches pieces of pages of religious books or animal skin would be hidden as a protective charm. Maybe this belt was worn by a traditional shaman or hunter, seeking protection in the bush. This particular belt was collected in the south of Senegal, in the Casamance-region. Some amulettes are decorated with kauri-shells, giving extra protective force. From the late 1990's. lenght of the belt; 90cm.
