oh-just a (possible) stash of ancient tikis!
I thought it was something important...

I know you are joking, But THIS is a REALLY IMPORTANT FIND.

Imagine for a second,

that you only had say 240-280 authenticated ORIGINAL 18th century Hawaiian examples of wood sculpture worldwide...

And one day, it doubled.

Hopefully, this find will increase our (us, and the scientific communities) knowledge of ancient carvings , and provide some new beautiful forms for us all to admire.

The fact that no remains were found nearby leads me to believe we will see pictures soon.

I did realise the importance so much so that I forwarded this to my sister who lives in Kona and my parents who have a place in Kailua-Kona (spelled wrong?-I'm tired). All kidding aside, it really is ZAZZ. Now hopefully the developers will have a ZAZZ attitude.
