| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | These Tongan kali are a type of headrest made from a single piece of wood with only two legs. Kali were used primarily as pillows. The head was regarded as sacred and should not touch the ground. There are several forms of kali, all of which demonstrate the elegance and economy of form characteristic of Tongan sculpture. These kali were likely to have been used by a Tongan of high status. It is said that headrests of high-ranking people acquire dangerous power and may therefore not be used by those of lesser rank. |
