Tikilongbeach, awesome find. The board depicts the Easter Island Birdman cult. The cult came into being after the ancestor worship which gave rise to the carving of the Moai. The back represents the Rongorongo writing of Easter Island which has never been successfully deciphered. Great piece, thanks for sharing it.
