Description: | A hand carved wooden figurine of an African hunter from the Maori tribe. With detachable shield, spear missing. A gift that was brought back from Jamaica from a friend. His shield is removable, and he once held a spear, but that has been lost. Donor spoke about the significance of the long earlobes, and how weights were used to stretch out their earlobes to create this look.
