Summary[edit]

Description
English: LOGO HUNTERS OF FARADJE, UELE DISTRICT They use these large bows and arrows for the bigger game, as antelopes and wild pigs. In war they pull the string with a twang which startles the foe, causing him to stop or turn, when a quickly fitted arrow brings him down. The small bells attached to the how each indicate a particularly fine shot; during a hunt the bells are stopped with leaves but at a dance they jingle merrily. The man in front is a famous elephant hunter, the most famous in his tribe.
