This is a koteka, otherwise known as a penis gourd or penis sheath. They're traditionally worn by native male inhabitants of some ethnic groups in Papua and Papua New Guinea. Many tribes can be identified by the way they wear their koteka. There are different sizes of koteka which serve different purposes. For example, a shorter koteka is worn for everyday work, and longer koteka, such as the one here, is worn for festive occasions or tribal events.
