SHAMAN ALTAR BELU AITOS TIMOR INDONESIA
AN INTERESTING AITOS BELU ALTAR ESTIMATED VALUE $800.00 TO $3000.00 USD A FINE PRIMITIVE TRIBAL ALTAR WITH NICE PATINA CONSISTING OF THREE ANCESTOR FIGURES. The Tetum of central Timor are one of the largest ethnic groups on the island. Before the Portuguese and Dutch colonization. They were fragmented into dozens of small states. Skirmishes between them were frequent, with headhunting a popular activity. The First Europeans in Timor were the Portuguese, perhaps as early as 1512, the year after they captured Malaka. Like Chinese and western Indonesian traders before them, The Portuguese found the island a plentiful source of Sandalwood(prized in Europe for its aroma and for the medicinal Santalol made from the oil) Since we are located at the source we are able to offer these pieces at well below market prices.

Right up until the last century, Sumbanese life was punctuated by periodic warfare between a huge numbers of rival princedoms. Though Christianity and to a lesser extent Islam has influenced these people. Around half the people in the west and a significant minority in the east still adhere to the animist Marapu religion, they live very much like their ancestors did hundreds of years ago. During our stay we witnessed an interesting funeral ceremony, with a beautiful dance performance where several buffalo were sacrificed; the meat was then cut up and shared with every one at the ceremony, a large feast then took place. As the guest arrived they greeted each other by rubbing their noses gently together. This w

TIMOR TRIBAL WOODEN BETELNUT CONTAINER BELU TRIBAL ARTIFACT late 20th C
Wooden Lime Container Highland Atoni People. Belu District West Timor. Wood& pigments 3.75" X 1.5" 26 grams. Mid 20th C. SCULPTURAL ARTIFACT The body of this betelnut container is hollowed out of one piece wood using the most rudimentary of tools. The motif is a clan specific chicken motif. The patina is uneven and there is a 1" crack in the wood which does not undermine the structural integrity of the artifact. The stopper has been fitted with a metal collar to tighten the fit- see detail photo. The betel nut ceremony has both formal and informal formats. The Highland Atoni People of South Central Timor have always been enthusiastic practitioners of both. I am happy to combine auctions that end at different times for shipping discounts. If you are bidding on multiple items. The invoices are adjusted and sent out after ... moreall items for the day have finished. Shipping by expedited parcel service within Canada $14.95 C. Canadian buyers can take their parcels up to 1kg for the same shipping rate as we do not have a small packet service available within the country. Shipping by small packet air to US destinations 11.95C. Shipping to all other international destinations serviced by small packet air 14.95* SHIPPING NEWS: I can no longer insure small packet air shipments through Canada Post. A new service called"tracked packet" has been introduced at a much higher rate. The most economical solution is a combination of small packet air and third party insurance. I am now using Insurepost and the countries that they will not cover can be serviced by Xpresspost or tracked packet. Small packet air service is no longer available for Thailand.
