This large spade-like (replica) Fijian club was probably too unwieldy for battle but may have been used for ritual cannibalistic ceremonies. Ha'amonga'a Maui trilithon on the main Island of Tongatapu.
The constuction has been credited to the 13th Century ruler Tu'itatui
and each stone weighs approx 40 tonnes. |
