It appears to be from Papua New Guinea, but there was no description and the reception staff were unsure except for either "Oceana" or "New Zealand." Has anyone seen it? Does anyone know? PS - Seeing the tiki is free. It is located before one has to pay admission and the parking also is free. BTW, the Egyptian show is excellent (far better than the recent King Tut II at LACMA) and closes at the end of the year.
