in my opinion it is a mashup of influences ...marquesan tiki for the body and the face has the sharp jeweled eyes of a Maori design. also interesting are the hieroglyphs. I'm reading a 1930s book on Polynesian culture and the author makes analogies to ancient Egypt falling just short of directly linking them. |
