Six fingers - statues and other images

Oceania

This statue, more than two meters high, is from originally from Raivavae, Austral Islands in French Polynesia. It is now standing in front of the Paul Gaugin museum in Tahiti. It was moved here by men from the Marquesas Islands - none of Raivavae's own men dared to touch the sacred statue, because that would mean disease and bad luck. It has six fingers. Did it hold something in it's hands?

The large Tiki Takai on the island of Hiva Oa in the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia has six fingers.

The statues can still be seen today, but already when Heyerdahl lived on Fatu Hiva in 1947 many of them were damaged.

Tangaroa is on of the most important Polynesian gods - the legends say that he separated heaven from the earth - some say he even created everything.

Tangaroa is said to have six fingers.

Not a statue, but footprints - on Tarawa, the main atoll of Kiribati. I found footprints after a giant, his wife and children in a schoolyard in the village Banreaba. They all had six toes. Erik Von Däniken found one untouched 5,3 meter long grave in Kiribati, where a giant is said to buried, but were unable to examine it. The people are very afraid of ghosts.

The statues on the Eastern Island (Rapa Nui) are perhaps most famous for their gigantic size, but did you know quite a few of the statues have six fingers?

You find people on the island today with six fingers!

"Birdman" from the Eastern Island (Rapa Nui). They say that the rim of Rano Kau became the center of a Birdman Cult. You will find simular "birdmen" in Peru and Turkey (Göbekli Tepe). Not six fingers? Well, somebody obviously retouched away one here - but why?

Well, in the ancient temples of Mexico he is also connected to Pacal Votan. His son was Chan Balan, and everywhere Chan Balan is depicted in the carvings at Palenque, he has six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.

A sarcophagus at the ancient ruins of Palenque in Mexico you will also find depictions of another person with six fingers. It is supposedly Lady Zac-Kuk or Lady White Quetzal, and she may have been an ancestor of Lord Pacal, a king of Paleque. Obviously a family with a six-fingers trait!

North America

Not a staute but a mummy! Pentawer (or Pentaweret) was an ancient Egyptian prince of the 20th dynasty, a son of Pharaoh Ramesses III and a secondary wife, Tiye. It definately seems from the picture that he had - six fingers and toes!!
The mummy is very unusual because it appears to have been embalmed quickly, without removing the brain and viscera, and to have been placed in a cedar box, the interior of which had to be crudely hacked to widen it.
He and his royal family has very long skulls, like Ramses II and Tutankhamund. And they came from the Black Sea area!

This relief on a temple in Esna, Egypt, is showing a man or a god or a pharaoe holding something in his left hand. Might be it would be interesting to know what he is holding or what he is doing or who he was, but anyway: Take a closer look at the hand. Yes - six fingers!
