They say this spear is Zande from the part of the Congo that borders the Sudan.

Interesting. The first thing that crossed my mind was that the spearhead and small barbs along the shaft of the spear head looked very much like the ones I saw carried by the Tubu in Chad. Which isn't far off from where you mention it's from. I'm not suprised that they are simular.

I still kick myself for not trading with a local to aquire his spear while travelling thru Chad...

You certainly have a cool spear there, and it sounds like you have a lot of other neat ones too!
