This is from New Hebrides (Vanuatu), sometimes called a "pig killer".

Looks a nice piece - congratulations.

Very nice pig hammer. Not only does it look like it has had good use it is also very nicely carved with good lines. I would imagine that every village would have one or two of these in use today. That is not to say that it is a common object. A wonderful item to add to a collection, very desirable. Here are two pictures from "Arts Of Vanuatu, Hawaii University press."
