Thanks Sven for clearing "Modern" up. At first I thought your new book was just going to be on Witco, (even though it had the cover it did), then learned it was much more, which I was hoping for. With the word modern I was thinking products that sprung up after tiki's decline, but now I see that it's a look and not just a time.

Actually that isn't what a Moai was suppose to look like hundreds of years ago. These pictured are probably more of a modern look than a finished moai with its white and black eyes in place.
