You know drew Barrymore's grandfather had a room with oddities in it and one thing was a shrunken head.

Well back in the 20s 30s it was popular to go on safari and one of the souvenirs offered was shrunken heads, like from really people, well ex real people.

It was said that you would get the strength of a strong warrior if you had his head, that and the ones with tattoos were very popular.

So they went out and got more of the tattooed natives to fill this demand, for heads!

Not statues, but real peoples heads!

Nobody is asking for those back.

I once saw one for sale at a antique store, I think it was real maybe as I have seen a real shrunken head before but I did not buy it as I felt it may have some bad ju ju thinking somebody did take his head after all.
(They make fake shrunken heads out of goat skin)

So I don't know if a statue is something to lose your head over or not.
Har!
