This Ngombe chief displays a strange scar arrangement; more interesting
is the man himself, with strong face, alien master of Congo country,
famous for initiative

This grotesque face pattern in ridged flesh is known as a "full rasp."
The man could only be photographed asleep; he fled the camera as
witchcraft

She is a perfect Congo beauty. Each scar has been made by wounding with
a knife and inserting irritating stuff to make the flesh swell up
|
The ancient cross, known as the swastika, scarred upon this woman's back,
seems to be sole evidence of Congo negro knowledge of the mystic sign
