Mike Seager Thomas holding a Rapa Nui "house god"
Obviously not by me, since I'm in the photograph, but taken for me on my camera at the Museo Antropológico P. Sebastián Englert, Rapa Nui. This is my proof that I was there. This was taken outside the museum's lab.
"House gods", such as this one, are shown flanking the doorway of a hare paeŋa (boat-shaped house), drawn in use by Pierre Loti in 1871. The exact origin and date of this one is unknown.
