Description
Another marker of Guro masks is the nature of the tattoo marks found on them. Guro tattoo marks replicate the scarification marks found on the men of the tribe. These marks are cut in relief on the foreheads and the cheeks in repetitions. Guro masks have small mouths and sharpened teeth. The coiffures on the masks are done in elaborate, geometric patterns, mostly in five parts. In addition, most Guro masks have broad, wooden collars to hold raffia cloaks worn by the dancers. Yet another distinction of Guro masks is the usual and common addition of animal features even to human masks. These can be in the form of elephant's ears, antelope's horns or superstructures of bird's heads. So great is the tendency to add animal features to masks that the Guro carvers' finest masks are the mash-ups of different animal features. These are the zamble masks.
