VUNIKAU FIJI CLUB

Warfare was a constant feature throughout Fijian history, even into the 19th Century.
Even as weapons intended to break bones, clubs filled an equally important symbolic role as items of immense power in Fiji. Root clubs tended to be made from the root and shaft of ironwood trees, which is a disambiguation of a large number of extremely dense woods. The density of this root head would have made it extremely deadly in combat. Decorations on the bottom.
