There are no large bodies of water on the island and the Highlanders do not know how to swim at all. For them, the sea ... moreis a place of mystery, magic and danger. This sculpture made from fossilized Symphillia- brain coral 6-10 million years old. Mined at an elevation of 1000 m. It is made to be placed, to protect a person or place.
