BELL MONEY OF THE NGBANDI - Primitive Money
The Ngbandi are composed of 4 smaller ethnic groups ( Abasango, Bwato, Mbaati and Monjomboli )all living in what is today, the Ubangi river region of Congo. The population migrated here in the 1600's. Zaire's former president ( Mobutu Sese Seko ) and his military cadre all came from this tribe.
The money bells ( also called 'cloche' ) were given to the local witch doctor during the Ganza ( strength ) ceremonies by the participants. And could be used to purchase such items as manioc ( a bushel for 3 bells ), wives ( 50 bells ) etc. Each measures approximately 6 inches ( 15 centimeters ) with a ringer stick fastened by a threaded thick metal wire running thru the bell body itself. Apparently these were used until about the 1920's.
