Over the past few years, Koor Archives have travelled the world, acquiring and contextualising Somali cultural artefacts, making them more accessible to the communities from which they originate!

The golxob is a large, double-sided dagger or short sword with a curved metal blade, commonly used throughout Somali territories. Often worn with a belt and secured in a leather scabbard, this weapon is also known as a gile in Afar and is popular in the Somali Horn and Eritrea

@TheNabaddoon Fun fact, Hirwe/o in ancient Egyptian means dance/festivity. And I believe “hirimaahee” literally means “this isn’t (maahe), a song or festivity (hirwe)”. Which connects back to this being war preparation, and not a festive dance.

Flying to Paris at the last minute to collect 53 headrests with a friend I’ve only met online (@TheNabaddoon) was a surreal experience. Haggling over a Somali amber necklace in a Paris flea market with a Brazilian dealer of African art was not on my list for 2024.

This might be a good time to remind people that Spain still occupies Moroccan territory - Ceuta and Melilla. #Morocco
