The Chihongo and Pwo Masks are the best known of the tchokwe and the most appreciated in museums and private collections around the world . Pwo used to represent a mature woman who was able to prove her fertility by having a child. More recently, however, this mask has come to represent, possibly due to European influence, a young girl and the desire to have many children. . The Pwo mask has multiple facets: it can represent a female figure in general, with its caricature features, or secretly be the portrait of someone important and loved. . Its versatile character is also noticeable due to its use in very popular performance shows, which can take place on different occasions, from ceremonies considered traditional by the Tchokwe and, currently, even at political rallies and parties such as Christmas. . image: Masked Mwana Pwo - Henrique Augusto Dias de Carvalho Portuguese Expedition to Muatiânvua 1884-1888: O Jornal As Colônias Portuguesas, 1893.

History Luba origin has two school of thoughts, one from historical and archaeological points of view and the other from oral traditions of Luba people. Historically, the larger Luba people of Africa including Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia (Lunda and Tchokwe people) were part of Bantu people that migrated out of West Africa in the Great Bantu migration. They are regarded as one of the earliest peoples to practice Ironworking in Central Africa. Their ancestors were farmers who, as early as 400 CE, inhabited the Lake Kisale region of Katanga.

According to the oral traditions of the Baluba, the genesis of the tradition of the kingdom, an aristocratic hunter hero coming from the East (Mbidi Kiluwe) met an aboriginal ruler (Nkongolo); unaware of the demanding customs of sacred kingship, notably of the meal rituals, he married the two sisters of this ruler and went back alone to his country. One of the sisters gave birth to a son (Kalala Ilunga) who eventually became a mighty warrior whom the ruler planned to kill. The young man had to flee to his father's country. Later, he came back, beheaded his maternal uncle, and became the first king of the Luba. These traditions gave rise to a controversy between, on the one hand, structuralists, who argue that the epic is representative of mythic ground shared by many Bantu-speaking peoples, and on the other hand, Africanist historians, who consider either that the epic contains traces of ancient historical facts or that it is a political charter legitimizing the prerogatives of the dynasty. However that may be, the Luba Kingdom was founded in the eighteenth century or before, in the vicinity of the present town of Kabongo. It exerted a strong political influence on its neighbors and was the main reference point for many rulers' genealogies and many religious institutions of the Eastern Savanna peoples.

Around 1500, possibly earlier, the Luba began to coalesce into a single, unified state, under the leadership of kings ruling by divine sanction. The mulopwe, or king, was drawn from the balopwe, a group who acted as intermediaries between the world of mankind and the world of spirits and ancestors. The mulopwe had three sources of power: *He headed a secular hierarchy of governors and under-governors, running down to local village headmen. *He collected tribute from local chiefs, which was then redistributed in the form of gifts to loyal followers. In practice this tribute system amounted to a network of state controlled trade.

*The mulopwe commanded significant spiritual prestige. He was the head of the Bambudye (or Mbudye) secret society, to which all kings, chiefs and officials belonged. The Bambudye society, which included both men and women, transcended kinship lines and helped knit the realm together. Bambudye “Men of Memory” preserved the tribes oral tradition

"#Sona é um conjunto de símbolos de origem #tchokwe, povo que habita o nordeste de #Angola e as regiões próximas da República do #Congo e #Zâmbia." Li isso em #Cumbe, obra de @marcelo.dsalete. Essa singela introdução à #iconografia da arte e cultura tchokwe foi uma das coisas que mais me chamou a atenção no livro, sem falar - é claro - na beleza que é, por si só, a ideia de um ideograma proverbial.

1. Khama III The Good King of Bechuanaland (1819-1923) by Carl Owens...Khama was highly regarded as a peace-loving ruler intent on technological advancements including building schools, scientific cattle-feeding and the introduction of a mounted police force, which practically eliminated crime. England honored him with approval to remain free from Bechuanaland.

2. Mwana Ngana Ndumba Tembo—Ruler of the Angolan Tchokwe (1840-1880 circa) by Kenneth Calvert...Ndumbo Tembo maintained the Tchokwe sovereignty and protected its resources by securing an autonomous territory that severely restricted European access. Ndumba Tembo’s work allowed the Tchokwe to retain their independence.

3. Ja Ja King of the Opobo (1821-1891) by Jonathan KnightAfter escaping slavery Ja Ja prospered as an independent trader. He became a ruler of his people and eventually king of his own territory, Opobo. Ja Ja fiercely resisted outside influence which led to his exile at age 70 to the West Indies by the British. He never saw his kingdom again.

Afrikan Kings...Royalty.
