Showing King Kahaya firing a bow with an attendant in the background holding arrows. This is probably a demonstration of one of the weapons given to Bell when he visited Kahaya's house the day after arriving in Mbarara ('Kahaya gave me a lot of bows and arrows, and pottery, and some skins; also a cow and calf', Bell (1907), February 1). |
