A while ago someone carved a multi-faced tiki, with like 3 or 4 different style tikis carved into it. No idea who it was or what they referred to it as, so I cant find the pics. It was pretty good though! Maybe someone else remembers it? This is a bowl I designed along similar lines, I titled it the "The Keepers of the South Pacific". From the 4 corners of the South Pacific these tiki gods watch over the Ocean and all the life in it. The Eastern corner is represented by Easter Island (right), the South is New Zealand (top), the North is Hawaii (left) and the West is Papua New Guinea (middle). The rim of the bowl is shaped like the top of the waves, and engraved into the side are all manner of marine life from the South Pacific.
