BACKGROUND The Yaka people live along the Wamba River. They migrated from Angola during the 16th century and settled under the control of the Kongo Kingdom. In the 18th century their lands were annexed by the Angola-based Lunda people. But by the 19th century the Yaka had regained their independence. Yaka society is tightly structure and headed by a chief of Lunda origin, the Kiamfu, who delegates responsibilities to ministers and lineage chiefs, Unkwagata. Young men are expected to pass through various initiation stages, including circumcision. The tribe lives principally from hunting, although subsidiary farming is undertaken by the women. Prestige objects such as zoomorphic and anthropomorphic neckrests, cups, adzes, combs and terracotta pipes were carved specifically for the chiefs and were kept by them. Slit drums ending in a carved human head were used by diviners. Many figures of various sizes were cherished for their magical abilities. Painter Fred Uhlman words- Most of the artists I admired. Picasso, Modigliani, Deraini, to mention only a few, had collected African art and had been profoundly influenced by it. Shortly afterwar

YAKA JANUS PROTECION FIGURE #2192 - DRC - For African Art Gallery
Item Number: 2192 YAKA M'BWOOLO/ MAGIC CHARGE JANUS FIGURE Ethnic Group: Yaka Country: Democratic Republic of Congo Material: Wood. Rope, Cloth, Fetish material Size: 17" 43.2 cm) tall Condition: Good. Tip of foot missing, see images. Provenance: James E Adkins Estate Collection(Florida. USA) This fetish figure(as called in older literature) or powere figure. Is attributed to the Yaka people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is figure that would generally be used by diviners in the healing and protection rituals they held. They were however used by individuals, families and entire villages too in the fight against evil, to destroy or weaken and evil spirits that were present, to help prevent and even cure sickness, to solidify contracts or agrrements between tribes people, and to repel bad deeds. The Yaka are and other African ... moretribes are bound to a strange relationship with power figures. As they can be an ally or an enemy. The negatives are, they can be used to invoke illness, to harm or to take revenge by those who have been wronged. They are normally used in this fashion against'witches' or'sorcerers' On a positive note, they are generally used as a form of protection from misfortune, to heal and to bring success. How these figures differ from ancestral figures is that they derive their power from ritual use and the addition of'power or fetish materials' The application and'charging' of the fetish material to the figure is carried out by a specialist. Usually the diviner who will then initiate the figure for its intended use. Customer Service: 561-745-1905

The men traditionally practiced hunting, while the women cultivated manioc, yams, peas, pineapples and peanuts. The arts of the Yaka are very much alive today. Ceremonial masks and figures are the work of a sculptor who carries out his art well away from the view of other villagers. The Yaka have an initiation, the n-khanda.

Wooden Yaka "Biteki" (Nkisi) Figure, Suku, Africa, Dem. Rep. Congo, Zaire
You are bidding on this charming old Yaka'Biteki' These figures are multi-functional and sometimes contradictory roles: they can be used to heal and/or cause illness. Medications are placed in the figure's abdomen. Which is closed with a resin stopper, then enclosed in small bags and hung around the neck or waist. Nkisi figures are activated by a diviner who can manipulate a force that can either cause illness or protect one's clan from illness. The diviner has an important role in the Yaka as he owns and activates powerful objects that can protect or cause harm. This wooden Yaka figure measures 14" tall. The wooden figure has some termite damage on the top due to it's age. There is a fairly nice patina over the entire figure. This is an excellent piece ready for any collection. I have collected a lot of treasures ... morethrough my travels over the years and have recently downsized my home and need to thin out the treasures. I lived in Africa(Zaire. Belgian Congo, Dem Rep of Congo) for four years in the late 70’s early 80’s and picked up a lot of things from there as well. I currently live in the southwest USA and have collected a number of things from this area. If you don’t see what you are looking for drop me line, I might have it.

Yaka Power Figure Magical Packets Feathers Stand Africa
Title, Yaka Power Figure with Magical Packets and Feathers African Type of Object, Carving. Fetish, power figure Country of Origin, DR Congo, People, Yaka, Materials, Wood. Feathers, cloth, reeds, unspecified substances, Approximate Age, second half 20th century, Dimensions, 15.5 inches H. x 5.5 inches W. Overall Condition, Good, Damage/Repair, chips and shallow cracks. Stains on cloth Additional Information: A Yaka standing figure with packets of magic with feathers attached to the arms. The figure is wearing a cotton cloth around the neck and the around the waist. This figure falls into the category of M'bwoolo. Known as power or magic figures, mainly used in healing rituals.This is a good example of carving coming from the Yaka and serving magic purposes. Yaka figures are not considered complete or powerful until given energy through ... morethe application of the magical substances into a stomach cavity, or placed as power equipment and magic packets in places throughout the figure. They are magically switched onâ by the nganga Mbwoolo or Ngana Khosi, the ritual specialist after which they will be addressed and given offerings that through time add to the power of the figure. The present day Yaka number approximately 300.000 and live along the Kwango River in the SW Democratic Republic of the Congo. Their neighbors are the Pende. They have a highly developed artistic sense-and they instill beauty and drama in even mundane objects. They are best known for the upturned noses found on initiation masks and diviner's fetishes, but their art can be abstract and vague as well. The Yaka have also produced create large figures of considerable proportions. Though these normally are used by diviners and healer fall in the"fetish" category,M'bwoolo, they also carve large ancestor figures like the one offered here. I have examined this piece and agree with the description. Niangi Batulukisi. PhD. Recommended Reading: Arthur Bourgeois. Art of the Yaka and Suku, Alain and Francoise Chaffin, Meudon, Fran

Exquisite African Art - Yaka Nkisyan / Kholuka Mask 0319
Exquisite African Art- Yaka Nkisyan/ Kholuka Mask 0319 Yaka Nkisyan/ Kholuka Mask Tribe: Yaka Origin: Democratic Republic of Congo Provenance: Field Collected Materials: Wood. Fibre cloth, plant fibre, basket weave Dimensions: 63cm Tall x 32cm Wide(not incuding raffia A lovely styled Nkisyan/ Kholuka mask by the Yaka people in the Congo. This was field collected from a Yaka village whilst on a hunt for tribal art last year. This is a later 20th Century mask and in my opinion this mask has not seen a lot of tribal use. But a really stunning piece that looks fantastic on a stand within the home or galery. Yaka Bayaka by Zyama The masks are commonly used. The eastern Yaka mask is called kakunga(the chief” and is considered one of the important masks in the circumcision ceremony. Other Yaka masks are widely varied in style. Although most of them ... moreare polychrome. The nkisi masks have a long, exaggerated upward-hooked nose, open mouth. Many masks and figures are remarkable by the turned-up nose. This is a strange but common detail, and there is no decisive explanation for this nose. One source supposes that it is an allusion to the elephant's trunk. A long handle under the chin was held by the dancer. The mask is generally surmounted by a richly ornamented, abstract construction– sometimes resembling a Thailand pagoda; sometimes in animal shapes, made of twigs, covered with fibre cloth, and finally painted. A variant is the broad-nosed polychrome mask, with round, protruding eyes and square, block-like ears. These two types of masks were used in initiation ceremonies of the mukanda or nkanda societies. At the conclusion of the initiation, the masks were held in front of the faces of the dancers. There are also animal masks. The masks fulfil several functions: some serve as protection against evil forces, others ensure the fertility of the young initiate. Their role consists in frightening the public, healing the sick, and casting spells. The kholuka mask dances alone at the end of celebrations. Very popular, f

Kongo Yombe Baga Hemba Luba Yaka African Fertility Wood Figure Beads Lizard Skin
Up for sale is another great hand carved African figure. This is a great hand carved male Kongo/Yombe/Baga/Hemba/Luba/Yaka/Bayaka fertility figure. The figure sports a great blue bead necklace and some type of lizard skin making it a really cool looking figure. This piece was most definitely hand carved and is in great condition. My estimate would be that this is piece was made sometime in the mid 20th century. However I am not an expert and will let you be the judge of how old the piece is. This piece has a really cool look with the skin belt and beads and would look great in any room as a conversation starter or make an excellent addition to any collection. The figure stands approximately 11.5" tall. Please note that I am not an expert on African antiquities and would welcome additional information on this piece. This piece came from ... moreOpfer's auction in Baltimore Maryland and was part of the same collection that appeared in their March 27 and subsequent sales on Liveauctioneers(this piece was not sold during that sale. It came from one of their subsequent sales featuring items from this collection) This was from a living estate and the gentleman whose collection this and the other pieces I will be listing came from apparently worked a second job to fund his collection. Please see pictures and ask all questions prior to buying. I will be happy to supply additional pictures/information upon request. This is being sold as is. And returns are not accepted. Free Shipping in the U.S.

Item: Yaka Sculpture Size: 43 x 6 x 5 cm Medium: Carved wood. Origin: Gabon(see ethnographical notes below) Context: Used in the preparation of millet beer. YAKA(BAYAKA) Democratic Republic of the Congo The Kwango River area(southwest of the Democratic Republic of the Congo) is the home of some 300.000 highly artistic Yaka people. Yaka or yakala means“males, the strong ones, thus Bayaka, the strong people. The Yaka society is organized into strong lineage group headed by elders and lineage headmen. The chief of the lineage had the power of life and death over lineage members. He was in charge of the cult of the ancestors and judiciary authority. And it was compulsory that he have large number of descendants. Chiefs, including dependent village chiefs, regional overlords, and paramount chiefs, are believed to have extra-human abilities, ruling ... morethe underworld or spiritual realm as well as the ordinary world. A chief participates in the affairs of witches so that he can tap their power for the good of the community. On the periphery of the hierarchy. The“master of the earth” plays an important role during the rites that accompany the hunt– the primary activity of the men. The Yaka hunters perform a specific ritual under the direction of the“master of the earth” to guarantee that they procure game. The Yaka have an initiation, the n-khanda. A special hut is built in the forest to give shelter to the postulants during their retreat; the event ends in circumcision, an occasion for great masked festivities including dances and songs. The n-khanda is organized every time there are enough eligible youths between ten and fifteen years of age. The arts of the Yaka people are very much alive today. The statues that contain magic ingredients. The biteki(nkisi) are multi-functional and sometimes have contradictory roles, for example, they were used to heal and to cause illness. The medications are placed in the figure’s abdomen, which is closed up with a resin stopper, or enclosed in small bags hung around
