But otherwise, Tom, you are getting into dangerous un-p.c. territory by equaling primitive art with children's art. :D But many books have been written about that, thousands of pages have been filled with discussing it, and to the specific question about the connection to TIKI, I have said my part in my books, and beyond cannot agree to such an oversimplification as "Tiki came from Africa". Buzzy, that is a good angle, artistic synchronicity, Zeitgeist and consensus consciousness all play a part.
