jtiki, Congrats on finding the holy grail, I contacted ADRIENNE L. KAEPPLER at the Smithsonian a couple of weeks back, she pointed me at the Bishop Museum, which of course - is where the trail ended for me. I believe the statue you are referring to with the cockscombing is not the one that resembles lono / kane but instead has more of a "comb" look to it, with the spines running from the front of the head to the back, rather than being piled up atop one another. I hope you have a scanner :lol: , would sure like to see 11 Gods Assembled. Apparently, David Malo did a great deal of historical research on this subject as well, and may have some publications / books out there worth finding... Great Job with the research, you're right, it must be heredity! 7 ps. Just went to the site you provided and ordered my own copy of the grail. Tx Again J! There's nothing like a sharp tool!
