• HUGE 19TH C. FIJIAN WOOD YAQONA BOWL
  HUGE 19TH C. FIJIAN WOOD YAQONA BOWL (TANOA)**Originally Listed At $2000** Polynesia, Fiji, ca. 19th century CE. An enormous wooden kava vessel carved in the form of a sea turtle. The deep circular bowl is supported by six integral legs. Large bowls of this kind (known as tanoa or kumete ni yaqona), cut from a single block, were used for the mixing of the psychoactive beverage called yaqona ( pronounced yanggona, in Fijia; also kava or kava kava in Tongan), made from the stems and roots of the pepper bush Piper methysticum, mixed with water. By the 18th century, the Tongan practice of kava preparation - a chief ritual - spread to other regions of Oceania like Fiji and Samoa. Size: 32.5" in diameter x 11.125" H (82.6 cm x 28.3 cm) Size: 60" L x 32.5" W x 11.125" H (152.4 cm x 82.6 cm x 28.3 cm) Bowls created for the preparation of yaqona, a beverage central to communal rituals, are treasured by Fijian society. A deep vessel like this would be used for serving this traditional drink - made by pounding the root of yaqona into a powder, mixing it with water, and then straining it - during welcoming ceremonies in which honored guests would be served a cup of yaqona.
