I like the Hondurus thing.I would never call it tiki but I might buy it if I came across it at a yard sale. I actually have quite a few little Central American and Mexican statues in obsidian that I like a lot. I have a necklace with a little god image of obsidian too.Not sure if it is Central or South American. Wasn't that why Heyerdal named his boat Kon_Tiki, because of a South American god named Tiki?
Could be from Lake Tikikaka.
Still not sure if they are "tiki", but I have a lot of stuff that I was given as gifts or found at garage sales or junk shops. To be honest I don't really give a damn if it is "tiki" or not as long as I like it.
