"Batwa themselves make these metal ornaments from raw materials, which they believe preserve them from their neighbors of the bisa tribe. Bisa people extract the iron from bog ore, but the copper, on the other hand, originates from the mines in Katanga, which have long been processed by both Negroes and Arabs. That the Negroes themselves make copper wire is a well-known fact, and that the natives of Katanga also understood this art, is evident from the following statement by Livingstone: "A month to the westward of Kazembe's country lies Katanga, where the people smelt copperore (malachite)....The natives draw the copper into wire for armlets and leglets." The finger ring, fig. 43, which is cut in bone testify to any careful work Fig. 42 is a copper finger ring. Like other metal ornaments, it shows a poorly developed forging skill." (p. 159, von Rosen, 1916, translated from Swedish).
