it would depend greatly on size, subject, age, quality, wood-type, artist (If you know it), etc etc.

Both Sothebys and Christies have specialists in aboriginal art work this would include anything by those from african tribes and native americans... check on their websites they used to do provisional valuations from photos with the option of a formal valuation if the item(s) were likely to be of any real value... TBH you might try seeing if anything similar is for sale on e bay though as there are loads out there
