<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 10056923, member: 2844&quot;]This is not an Easter Island toki.</p><p>Toki is the Maori word for the Polynesian adze, known all over the Pacific. They weren&#039;t first made in the 1340s (why that date?<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" />) but have been around for thousands of years. If they hadn&#039;t, the Polynesians wouldn&#039;t have been able to build the vessels that took them on their travels to their destination on the many Pacific islands that became their home. There are also ceremonial tokis, for status.</p><p>Also, without the toki there would have been no Polynesian culture as we know it.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as komo said, please back up your claims.</p><p>Guessing is accepted because it can help us along, as long as you say it is just a guess. Of course educated guesses are better, substantiated claims better still, solid proof is best.</p><p>You made an unfunded claim, and even included a date to &#039;support&#039; your claim.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
