Angola During the masquerades where the Mana Pwo and Chihongo masks are most prominent, other masks may appear, like political figures, or animals that relate to hunting. In this case the mask is the outsider or "stranger". A similar mask, descibed by Francois Neyt as the "white man" is in the collection of the Louvain University museum. Cf. Neyt (François), "Arts traditionnels et histoire au Zaire/Traditional Arts and History of Zaire", Louvain-le-Neuve, Université Catholique de Louvain, 1981:225, fig.XII.3
