This depicts a carving of Pele
in his younger days, 1825,
when he hung out in the royal sacred enclosure
in Karakakua, Hawaii.
Today you'll find him at the British Museum,London.
Looks to me like he's taken a good beating.
Hair missing, feet broke off.
Mother of pearl eye missing.
Must be a tuff job keeping track of volcanoes.
I will predate this when he was a younger god
in a more fit shape.
