Thank you to the big hitters... you guys make us wee ones feel like family :)

After a long search, I came across the ceremonial wooden bowl recovered by my great uncle, Microft Stockington, on one of his many adventures deep into the jungles, encountering and documenting the lives of primitive tribes. My understanding is he barely escaped with his life but was able to somehow barter a small magnifying glass and a pair of striped boxer shorts for this, Chief Patia's ceremonial bowl, sized perfectly for a shrunken head and emblazoned with a depiction of an enemy chief's shrunken visage. I considered donating it to the Smithsonian but couldn't resist sharing it with the TC family.

This is submission #2 for me... happy I was able to complete in time... hope you enjoy...

oops... that's not it... how did that get in here?

here we go...

Chief Patia's Ceremonial Wooden Bowl... oooh... aaah.... Smithsonian, eat your heart out.

to give you an idea of the bowl's depth... perfect for some stewed brains, perhaps?

sorry for the poor phone camera pics... me thinks you will enjoy it even more in person!

Peace,
