A little correction for my friend Bigbro...Paupua New Guinea artifacts are absolutely, positively, 100% correct for a tiki temple, period. Fully a third of the artifacts in the Mai Kai and our nearby Trader Vic's are from Paupua New Guinea. Not only is it one of the largest, darkest, and most mysterious islands in the Oceana sphere, (furthering their adventurous tiki mana) but it's art forms are some of the most interesting and varied in the entire world. Doubtless Donn Beach, Vic Bergeron, Steve Crane, and Bob Thornton recognized this as they each had innumerable amounts of PNG artifacts on their walls. Absolutely, positively, 100% correctomundo.
