Note: A similar one is illustrated in Marc Ginzberg, African Forms, Skira, 2000, page 130, and Mr. Ginzberg notes: "the string of this zither-type instrument is wound back and forth and originally a resonating gourd would have been attached at the back. The finial at the top usually represents a full figure in the local style."
