Masks were made to represent animals because hunting in early times. Masks were sacred and said to have tremendous power. Used for healing, funerals, control, as well as initiation and fertility rites. Symbolic masks were devised to be worn during ceremonies of many ancient peoples. These masks portrayed gods, animals and spirits and were worn ceremonially for communicating with supernatural forces believed to rule the universe.
