This antelope mask from the Kurumba people of Burkina Faso would be worn on top of  a dancer's head during rituals and ceremonies for elders who have passed and to honor ancestors. The masks would be a physical embodiment of the deceased elder and a way to preserve their memory and achievements. When not in use for ceremonies, the mask may be placed on an alter in the ancestral spirit house.

Kurumba masks are famous for their geometric triangular patterns and bright colors of red, white, black, and blue.
