PAIR OF OGBONI SOCIETY BRONZE STAFFS, YORUBA CULTURE
Length of longer one 5.75 inches.

Initiates into the Ogboni society of elders dedicated to the earth deity receive as emblems of their judicial authority a set of paired copper alloy, lost wax castings called Dan, a chain links male and female figures . The left fist clenched over the right is a gesture of greeting society's elders, while also indicating the supremacy of religious authority.
