Much better known ' together ' ... as the " Tiki Puzzle " !!! Reonegro's 1st ! Wow ..... And, as for the Traditional ' Legend ' of the Tiki itself - it is one of Maori Mythology ! Tiki is actually the very first Man ! - and was created by Tumatauenga ! Tiki then found the very first Woman ! - named Marikoriko ... while he was visiting a Pond ! She then immediately seduced him, and became the Father of Hine-kau-ataata ! Hence, the extreme popularity of the Tiki in Central-Eastern Polynesian cultures ... and truly over time, the rest of the World ! Usually found in the material & symbolic form of Large, or even small wooden carvings ... and often statues !

And ... I most certainly don't think that was a coincidence - as, looking at the numerous Amazing ! Grateful Dead Backstage Puzzles that were soon to be created ! - by Reonegro, and for the Good Ol' Grateful Dead !!! It was more like a ' Launch ' announcement - into the future designs to come ! And, it is probably pretty important to note also - just how ' Unique ! ' this Tiki Puzzle really is, in comparison to the future Puzzles, some 2, 3, 8 - and even 10 ! Pieces ! Many ' Cartoon ' Puzzles too, down the line - into the 1992 & 1993 Touring-Years ! This Tiki puzzle has a a very creative, subtle, and Classic ! look to it ... with of course, an Amazing ! color-scheme too !! And, as for this particular Tiki design itself ... Whoa ! - just check out the photos for a viewing !! One of the coolest Reonegro / Grateful Dead Puzzles for certain.
