[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 307684, member: 84"]I believe this is real tribal instead of tourist tribal carved statue mainly because they carved the woman's privates into it & I don't think they would do that to a piece meant to be sold to a tourist - but I could be wrong. I think the bent legs are a clue and used in a tribe's carvings but I can't remember it. Also the scarification on her face. But what does the "outie" belly button mean? Can someone tell me where this is from? And if it was tribal used? Thanks!
