    Hi all,
    I recently acquired this Small Painted Wood Head and would like some information about it. I currently know literally nothing about it so any guesses as to origin, use, age, etc would be greatly appreciated. It measures about 7" tall including the base. It is about 7" long and 2" wide. The base has a hole in it like it was meant to be placed on a rod or pole or something.
    Thanks in advance for any help, I always learn something new here.
    Anthony

      Perhaps Bali. It might be handle of a walking cane.

      This is the head of a wooden rod puppet, used in the "Wayang golek" puppet theater in Java, Indonesia. It portrays the monkey warrior Hanuman,
